GPA Video

Post by GPA2196 »

Gentlemen,

I've finally put up the video of my trip several years ago to Bill Fredericks. During this trip I saw his Ford GP and more importantly his GPA. It's a beautiful restoration. I got to swim in it for a couple of hours on a lake in Orlando Florida. The video shows going into the water from the passenger perspective and then smimming, coming out of the water, and then another trip photographed from outside the water.

Bad things you will see :) On second trip into water driver (Bill) forgets to put the transfer in neutral so wheels continue to spin. And is in high transfer instead of low when exiting causing a bit of fancy clutch work :)

Enjoy and post any comments :) I hope to have my GPA in this condition soon.
