A homeless man has been reunited with his family after 13 years…thanks to a shiny Ford Mustang.
The supercar owner noticed Jorge Adrián Pineda Chávez repeatedly sitting on a wall next to his parked vehicle to admire it.
The 54-year-old would turn up with a tear in his eye and smile across his face.
TikToker Andrés Hernández filmed Jorge’s touching reaction to his car, and several clips went viral with tens of millions of views.

Andrés later decided to give the homeless man a ride in his Mustang.
Footage of Jorge enjoying the drive with a smile on his face also went viral on TikTok.
Andrés’ 155,000 followers were so touched by Jorge’s reaction that they sent food and clothes and even suggested a makeover.
After listening to his online fans, the TikToker decided to take Jorge to a barber shop in Monterrey, Mexico, for a spruce up.

Jorge’s sister Beatriz saw the viral clips and immediately recognised him despite 13 years passing since they last saw each other.
She wrote to Andrés to ask for his help in reuniting them.
Beatriz said she last saw her brother when he moved to the US.

They lost contact with each other, and he was apparently deported back to Mexico at some point.
He then suffered a work accident and fell on hard times, ending up living on the streets of Monterrey.
As Jorge doesn’t have a wife or any children, his sister is his only known family, as reported by What’s the Jam.
A video of the siblings’ reunion has gone viral with 1.6 million views.
One follower commented: “You are going to go to heaven Andrés, all thanks to your car.”
Monica said: “I can hear your voice breaking, emotional reunion.”
Diana wrote: “Tell me I’m not the only one crying.
“I’ve been following you since your first video.”
Gaby remarked: “Please don’t let him go.
“I hope his family is there for him and they continue to have direct communication.
“God bless you Andrés.”
Raquel commented: “My uncle disappeared 10 years ago and although it’s very unlikely he is still on this plane, I hope to meet him again one day.”
