This story expands beyond the car. Author Lewis Barton’s upcoming book, “The Kennedys Double Cross the Godfather”, reveals never-before-published details of mafia influence, government secrets, and the chilling events leading to the assassination of President John F. Kennedy.

The book draws on personal stories from Duchess Marie Cornino Barton, who was taught to shoot a Tommy gun by her Uncle Tony at just 12 years old, and who was present at three secret meetings between her father, Don Vito, and high-level CIA agents at the 17 Oaks Plantation — where the plan to eliminate Kennedy was allegedly discussed and voted on by the Councilette of Godfathers.

This compelling story is being developed for potential screen adaptation, with Amazon Prime, Netflix, and Warner Bros. reportedly in discussion.

Today, this historic 1932 Lincoln is owned and protected by the Godfather Don Vito/Barton family. It remains a symbol of the legacy of Baron Antonio and the life he led — a unique intersection of family, crime, history, and cinema.

Preserved not just as a vehicle, but as a living museum piece, the car stands as a testament to power, mystery, and timeless craftsmanship.
