Jason Momoa has shared a moving video documenting the restoration of his wife Lisa Bonet’s first car.

The actor recently shared the video on his YouTube channel.

In the clip, he explains that Bonet had the car, a 1865 Ford Mustang, when she was 17 years old.

“I know we can’t relive a memory, but maybe we can rebuild one,” he narrates.

Momoa is then shown bringing the car to a facility where it is then restored by professionals.

Once the process is completed, Momoa returns and explains: “This is a big dream come true because this was my wife’s first car.

“...I never thought that it would look like this. To be in this passenger seat with my wife here, and surprise her, and our babies in the back, riding in her first car [from] when she was 17... I’m excited to see her face.”

He then takes the car back to Bonet, who upon discovering it, whispers: “It’s beautiful.”

“Holy cow,” she adds. “That is gorgeous.”

The pair and their two children then drive off in the newly restored vehicle.
