The Moment of Truth---It works!!! |
| Description: |
This is THE moment that the crew hit the button and she started right up! After sitting for over 7 years, the crew was amazed that all she needed was to charge the batteries to get her going. I was expecting clouds of smoke, but was disappointed, as all we got was a tiny poof of blue smoke, which dissipated right away. |
