The Worldwide Group auction house says the 1964 model Cadillac hearse will be on the block May 5th at the Houston Classic Auction in Seabrook, Texas. It transported Kennedy’s body from Parkland Memorial Hospital in Dallas to Air Force One.

Hearse distributor Ardeen Vaughan has resisted selling the JFK hearse for 4 decades. Now he’s planning his estate, and wants to be sure it goes to a museum or collector who will honor its legacy.
