so beautiful

edit:

was this the last car he ever bought? wasn't he shot Nov of '63?

Schwabe Mar 23, 2010 03:18 PM

Yep, that's why I have the "?" in the title, I am sure there was a long wait for an ordered car, however would he have ordered one from Germany???

John Fitzgerald "Jack" Kennedy (May 29, 1917 – November 22, 1963), often referred to by his initials JFK, was the 35th President of the United States, serving from 1961 until his assassination in 1963.

I hope they get 99k for it. It will bring the value of mine up :) The name recognition adds a few bucks only...imho.

Gorgeous car, pretty weird seeing something like that in his name.

whitlock Mar 23, 2010 10:25 PM

Think someone just got lucky with the same name. JFK never had a residence at that address.

If it can be authenticated, we are talking millions.

Hell, his damn pipe sold for $10K a few years ago.
