Sammy has an incredibly exciting project planned... to recreate the McCandless 4-Cylinder Norton!
The McCandless brothers from Northern Ireland provided Norton with the legendary Featherbed frame and swingarm rear suspension together with several prototypes, despite either being directly employed by the Norton Birmingham factory. One such prototype is the 'McCandless Norton', having a 497cc parallel overhead-valve twin 4-stroke and features that were way ahead of its time in 1950, including the the staid Model 7 Dominator. Less well known is the McCandless prototype four-cylinder Norton with a 1938 Fiat 500 car engine set lengthways in an extended Featherbed frame. This leads us nicely to this latest video from the 'Paradise' of Sammy's Workshop... enjoy! The Norton Prototype is one of the over 500 exhibits in The Sammy Miller Motorcycle Museum in the heart of the New Forest (UK)! @sammymillermotorcyclemuseum @HenryColeTV @AllenMillyard @TheGoodTimesMotorbikeChannel @Brooklandstv @motorcyclenewsdotcom @ClassicBikeCollections @RoadrunnermotorcyclesUk @motorcycleclassics @NortonMotorcyclesOfficial #classicbikeguide #motorcyclecollection #realclassic #motorcyclemuseum #classicbike #motorcycleexhibition #sammymillermotorcyclemuseum #nortonmotorcycles #norton @VintageBikeBird @DukeDyson
