Rap icon Tupac Shakur’s last purchased vehicle has been stashed away in Vancouver, Canada for decades, but come May 19th, the 1996 American Motors Hummer H1 will head to the garage of the highest bidder at an upcoming RR Auction.

Legal documents show that Shakur purchased the Hummer on August 16, 1996, which is a little less than 30 days before his violent death in Las Vegas, Nevada. Such a tragic story actually brings more value to this vehicle.

Shakur’s personally owned and driven fully loaded vehicle comes equipped with a 6.5 liter, turbo diesel V8 engine with automatic transmission, and an odometer reading of just 10,101 miles. The hardtop body features 38″ Dick Cepek off-road lights, a 360-degree spotlight, a grille guard, diamond-plate bumpers, GC Package oversized off-road wheels and tires, and an external PA system with three sirens. Furthermore, the area over the rear driver side fender bears white lettering that spells out the word “Eliminator.”

The interior is trimmed in burl wood with beige leather upholstery, and provides a 12-disc Clarion sound system, Sony GPS, a central tire inflation system, air conditioning, rear sliding glass window, privacy glass, full power options, and a 12,000-pound winch.

Perhaps one of the coolest things about this Hummer is the fact that it comes with a promotional cassette tape for Michael Jackson’s Thriller. It also comes with the original license plate, which reads “YAKNPAK,” and a document signed by Tupac’s mother when she took legal possession of the vehicle after his death.

Regardless of whether or not you’re a fan of Tupac, this H1 is in stunning shape, and could easily bring big, big bucks!
