If you’ve ever restored an old bike, or ever found the perfect gift for a parent or one of your kids, or just enjoy a story that will to bring tears of joy to your eyes, “The Norton Project” video is a must-watch online treat. Brothers Jeff and Jason Ledellaytner snatched the frame and other pieces to a 1969 Norton Commando 750 belonging to their father and secretly had the vintage British bike restored as a gift. Dad didn’t even know the bike was gone. The 16-minute video tells the story of the theft, restoration and delivery and also has some great shots at the end of the Norton roaring down the road. Do you think Dad was pleased? Great stuff!!
