It is not a secret that divorce is common among celebrities. That is why it’s inspiring to see famous people who have found everlasting love- especially with someone who is also in the limelight.

Jason Momoa and his wife Lisa Bonet are among these stars.

They’ve been together for more than 14 years and are happily living with their kids.

He shared a video on his YouTube channel and it’s pretty sentimental.

It’s all about his wife’s first car – which is a 1965 Ford Mustang.

The actress purchased the car when she was 17 and now that she is 52 years old, the car was still with her. Since it’s filled with lots of memories, she never planned to get rid of it and really wanted to restore it someday.

Her husband was the one who made it happen.

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

These were Jason’s words when he was sharing old clips showing his wife’s precious car.

After many years, of course, it turned into a worn-out vehicle that is rusty and grubby. Jason wanted to restore it and surprise his wife with the outcome.

With the help of custom automotive builder Divine 1 Customs, Jason’s plans became achievable.

They started by cleaning it and changed almost all of its parts. Divine 1 Customs even shared some details of the parts that they replaced including the interior, steering, lighting, and the engine.

Lisa was speechless and completely stunned by the new look of her old car.

Everything happened just as Jason planned it. That’s why you can see the bliss on his face, too. It was so pure. They even gave each other a kiss and a tight hug which shows how they love each other genuinely.
