Datsun 240Z Heater Control Panel Finisher NOS Genuine OEM Nissan New Sealed Mint
It would be nice for $800 if they would just remove it from the package for some better pictures. Pretty easy to tell if it's new or not

There are small scale engraving tables that run off of a computer. They use a router to do the engraving. Get's the engraving done and a new tool for the shop

It's fascinating how world viewpoints and political view points vary across the country. In my part of the country the view points of this pastor are not considered extreme. Not to mention the writer goes out of his way to frame the argument in language that makes it sound extreme.

Brake Booster Rebuild Help
I am unsure on the seals. I did a lot of guessing there and just working through it by looking at the seal edges The retaining key can probably go in any orientation because the rubber diaphragm will go in that slot and keep it in place. If I remember correctly...

COVID-19
This is actually pretty well know if you just look around a little bit. This doctor was escorted out of the Canadian lab and all her research assistants. There have been a number of other researchers who have been arrested for being complicit in this. Biowarfare research is what goes on at these level 4 labs among other things. Even at our level 4 labs! The problem comes when you play with fire but don't have a cure, treatment or vaccine and it gets out. Then bad things happen. If you wanted to create a really bad virus weapon, what would you want? Contagiuos, long incubation period while transmissible, deadly, health care intense...? I read a long article the other day about how you can mutate a virus by infecting animals in series until you get the desired mutations. You end up with a much more deadly virus and no engineering markers. Patient zero in China had never been to the wet market or had contact with anyone who did. Pretty hard to catch it from someplace or someone you've never been in contact with...

valve guide seals
You could have dropped a valve seat too. It's pretty rare, but possible. It would make the valve lash wonky depending on how the valve seated against it and it would be pretty noisy. Might not be able to tell that with the camera though.

COVID-19
I have a little grace for some of our leaders. They have experts around them that give them advise and they have a meeting before they ever go to the podium. There is a consensus established in that meeting that is then repeated at the podium. Being on the outside, it's hard to know if our leaders were getting good advise or not. They are repeating what they are being told from the experts. I read an article a couple of days ago that was reporting on opposing views concerning the virus. The two people who didn't agree were both experts, either virologists or epidemiologist. So even in the scientific community there is not total agreement on the proper course of action. I would also say this has never happened before. There are 1.4 billion people in India that are sheltering at home. Also our societies are much more mobile than during the 1918 pandemic. As I recall too, the Spanish flu didn't have the long incubation times, which makes this virus much harder to track and predict

I went today and bought the last thing I think I need to stay home and make progress on the Z's paint job. So i should be good to go for a few weeks now. My wife's company has just been declared essential... Good and bad to that: Good: She'll still get a good paycheck Bad: no time off and out and about where she could get exposed

There was an interesting article about the cruise lines on Zerohedge the other day. Very enlightening! They are all flagged out of low tax countries to evade US tax law and workers right laws but now they want a US bailout??? Another good reason to not go on a cruise...
