In a heartfelt gesture to his grandpa, this man found the perfect Lincoln Town Car on Facebook Marketplace, and he rocks it like a Mafia boss when it arrives.
While cars are getting ever more convoluted, many of the older generation are becoming perplexed by interactive dashboards and keyless startups.
There’s something rustic and natural about a throwback vehicle with leather in all of the right places. Plain, simple, reliable.
That’s why models like the Lincoln Town Car are so popular even in this era, and this grandpa exemplifies it perfectly.

Grandson surprises his grandpa with old dream car from Facebook Marketplace
We often hear about the new generation of drivers giving back to their automobile-loving family, gifting or restoring their beloved cars, such as this 1954 truck being brought back to life for one grandpa.
But in this tale, an Italian-American family shared a heartwarming moment as a grandpa was gifted a Lincoln Town Car.
YouTube personality ItalianStallion410 – a tip to Balboa there – took to the platform to showcase this Lincoln Town Car that he found on Marketplace for a bargain.
The creator introduced his grandad as an ‘absolute savage’, rough-and-tough old-school gangster who’s in his late 70s, and had a taste for classic luxury cars, having previously owned a Cadillac.
But after recently sending the Cadi off to car heaven, the grandson presented him with a pristine Lincoln Town Car, and it’s safe to say that he loved it.

The luxury classic boasts a V8 engine that purrs like a hungry kitten, with heated seats, AC, traction control, and lumbar seat support – a personal favorite for the nearly 80-year-old man.
“I feel like a boss in this thing… this is real luxury,” the grandpa said.
“Man, this thing’s a Cadillac killer!” he added, tipping his mafia boss hat to his old vehicle that was recently scrapped.
The grandson has now promised to get the car fully restored too, including an extensive detailing job to make it look as if it were just rolling off the court in 1980.
Much like how this 90-year-old man had his Bel Air scrubbed to the bone in a priceless job.
Is the Lincoln Town Car the OG classic luxury ride?
The Lincoln Town Car is undoubtedly a stellar classic luxury car, and it’s often a prime choice for restoration jobs.
It’s been described as one of the best classic luxury cars ever made, with certain models even being used as the personal vehicle of former US President George W. Bush.
However, there are a range of competitors, such as entries from Plymouth, Dodge, and Ford Mustang, all of which were recently celebrated on July 11.

But for this grandpa, there’s nothing better, and that dusty old Cadillac is nothing but a distant memory as he drives around in a car fit for a president… and a mafia lord.
