1986 BJ73 - Spanish Import to US - Under New Management

[wardharris]

Sounds like the gauntlet hath been tossed.....

Bringeth it on sire........

"... We few, we happy few, we band of brothers;
For he to-day that sheds his blood with me
Shall be my brother; be he ne’er so vile,
This day shall gentle his condition;
And gentlemen in England now-a-bed
Shall think themselves accurs’d they were not here,
And hold their manhoods cheap whiles any speaks
That fought with us upon Saint Crispin’s day."

Tech post:
Road trips require planning, logistical support and execution. Need a good stereo in any Cruiser I own.

Using relatively inexpensive Alpine mechless head units these days that do not have DVD or nav on board, but wireless and USB connections for my iPhone/Android. Much better integration of phone, iTunes, Pandora, navigation, etc. I have given up on a decent Bluetooth mic/speaker experience in any Cruiser and now only use Plantronics ear bud.

Preferred selections on the roll-in: Garry Owen and Ride of the Valkyries.

"Highway To hell"
"Born To Be Wild"

"Self Control"

And for you swaggering gallon paint can packers....."Stayin' Alive".....

I love the smell of napalm ... ahhh ... diesel .... aw never mind

Tech: are you converting the V8J73 to 12V to make mobile electronics easier to integrate into a vehicle that was never intended to have moderate quality audio much less high quality?


Oh ... Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?!?

 

[cruiserdan]

NO!

Appropriate considering the trip will require adequate stores of beverages!

Yup , with a dead bird on the hood and you'll have to grow a porn star 'stache

Almost forgot ... To be authentic, you'll have to limit yourself to 23 channels on the CB

 

[cruiserdan]

Just remember to leave the gate open So's I can get in.....

No lack of faith, Shaman. Just clarifying

OK, Tech Post response:

1 - Not napalm or diesel - Jade East, Hai Karate or Old Spice.

2 - Yes, total voltage conversion from 24 to 12. I bought a complete harness from @Shes Mad (thanks again) - winch, lights, ECM/eng/trans/Mini Gun, all require better 'lectricity.

3 - It was the French that bombed Pearl Bailey, not the Germans
