The car my elderly neighbor has driven since 1946, he apparently had his dad buy it as a graduation gift.

I got an unactivated cell phone for my graduation. At least I could play snake on it.

It appears to be a 1941 Cadillac. A SUPER nice gift in 1946 when cars were scarce. Production was still ramping up after being shut down during the war and it was a complete seller’s market. There was likely a steep premium to buy that car, even if it was used.
