Default A ride in Project No Flight




A few days before Thanksgiving on an unseasonably warm sunny day I took my long time project car, No FLight, out for a test run. For the first time when I got home I didn't have anything I needed to fix (knock on wood). A couple days later on another unusally nice late year weather day Juliet agreed to come for a ride with me, her first time in the car since the empty shell arrived in our garage 20 years earlier, and take some passenger perspective video. With editing and hosting on my daughters YouTube channel, that is her sitting in the empty engine bay with me when the project began, you can now go for a ride in Project No Flight.

Enjoy the ride and be sure to look for the NCRS decal.

You can see more brief video staring No Flight in the Customizing Shoe Lasts video on Exa's site. I'll let you discover that connection by yourselves.

-Greg

NCRS is now judging modified cars too. I've talked to our chapter judging chair about possibly bringing it to a local meet sometime.

GregP,
What a great car. Wasn't it hard not to gas-it when the street light went green.
