'64 Parisienne CS "barn find" - last on the road in '86 ... Owner Protection Plan booklet, original paint, original near-mint aqua interior, original aqua GM floor mats, original 283, factory posi, and original rust.
I always look at these cars as being the pinnacle of GM doing what it did best - making big, comfortable highway cruisers. For the next 4 decades they would struggle to try to reconfigure to meet the world that changed while they were looking the other way.
I don't see it as a mafia car - they would have preferred Lincolns or Caddys... a Pontiac wouldn't have had the status they require.
Given the triple black, it could have been a family car at a funeral home, though.
Yup, melt the miles away in complete isolation from the rough road passing under your wheels. You can't find anything that rides like that in the new cars out there today.
"When Hoffa did not return home that evening, his wife then reported him missing. Police found Hoffa's dark green 1974 Pontiac Grand Ville, unlocked, at the restaurant, but there was no sign of Hoffa or any indication of what happened to him" (From wiki)

Kinda funny you're talking mafia cars. My parents took the whole family on a road trip in our '76 Bonneville brougham 2dr, from winnipeg to NY to visit our "made" family friends in NYC. They probably knew Hoffa, but my cousins had two limos and lots of hired help! They did not drive Pontiacs. I was only 12 but no one asked for my ID when we went to night clubs and restaurants in little Italy, everything was on the house!
It was quite an experience for a kid from the north end!
