Hello. Welcome to another video from Mart's Garage. During lockdown we had to only drive for essential journeys. Shopping as infrequently as possible is an essential journey, so i decided to leave the daily parked and get the coupe out to give the Crusty Flatty a run. It ain't much, but it was fun to give it a little run around relatively quiet roads.
Come and join me. Recording date was 30th April.

If you watch directly in youtube the like and subscribe buttons become available. Please subscribe if you haven't already. It would be good to break the 500 mark.

Hey Mart thanks for the ride, that flatty runs pretty good, but you do need to clean your windscreen.

Everybody has a "next" project. Can you give us a hint what you next one might be? Please continue to supply us with videos.

Mart,

Thank you for reminding us that this virus issue extends past our local boundaries. We truly are all in this together.

Stay safe,

Merc Cruzer

Mart,

Another very enjoyable video. I agree with Merc Cruzer about how we're all so affected by the pandemic. The video is a great reminder about what all of us have to deal with for the time being.

And thank you for allowing us a peek into your life. It's amazing how we're able to ride along with folks from thousands of miles away and feel like we're visiting with a good friend.

And finally:
Don't touch that exhaust! And you should have let us believe that you broke the tires loose when you drove away from your home!

Stay healthy and safe.
Mike

The Crusty Flatty is no longer crusty. It sounds pretty good.

Thanks for the ride through your community in your 33.
Well done.
Love the way your garage and shop are tucked away behind your fence.
Are there Homeowner Associations where you are? Hope not.

Mart....I'd like to see a picture of the camera you use for these videos. What brand, model number and how much memory it is equipped with. How did you mount the camera in the car?....

Marty, thanks for the nice ride. Reminds me of my 34 except the steering wheel is on the opposite side to your car. Interesting to look at your neighbourhood. The old V8 sounds good. Best regards, Kevin.
