Jeff Bloch can not stand watching an abandoned airplane piled near his home. Together with his friend, he changed a former Cessna plane into a car that is ready for action on the streets.

More recently, Bloch made his Spirit of LeMons could run on the public streets legally. Then Bloch pinned a standard features on the car, such as the headlights, turn signal lights, brake lights, and even insured.
Bloch says as told to Barcroft TV on YouTube, the biggest problem now is that he’s concerned about drawing focus from other drivers who should be focusing on the road, not his plane-car or the fact that it should really have been a car or plane.
