Its five minutes long, but watch it and I defy you not to end up a bit watery-eyed.....

Frig me... not sure I'd like my kids to go find some of the motors I've owned in my early days after the way I used to drive them, though probably wouldn't say no to my old MK2 16v GTi that I had in the late 80's

Makes me want to find my dads old triumph stag

It's no doubt languishing in that big scrapyard in the sky along with the majority of 1970's BL output! Probably parked up with my old Russet Brown TR7

Great story. Shows how cars do become apart of the family.

Great story! Very emotional.

Reminds of a similar one I saw recently where two brothers had their dad's old Triumph (I think it was) bike that was basically just a box of parts completely rebuilt to like-new standard and gave it to him on his birthday. In fact, maybe that video was the inspiration for this one, or the other way around.
