What a nice video.
Have been pondering a Vespa for my next tinkering project, getting very itchy fingers with little to do in the garage.

For those few minutes you can forget all the trouble and strife there is in this world.
What a trip of magic. The piano is great, I remember my daughter playing it many years ago.

Thanks to KS.
