The last limo to safely transport President John F.
Kennedy before his assassination is expected to reach up to $500,000 at auction this week. 

The 1963 Lincoln Continental that jfk black car service and First Lady Jackie Kennedy traveled in on the morning of November 22, 1963, as they went to a Fort Worth Airbase to get a flight to Dallas will go up for sale on October 14. 

The 46-year-old president was later shot and killed as he traveled through Dallas in another convertible Lincoln Continental. That car is on display at the Henry Ford Muse. 

With the transition to all online auctions, some of the most expensive web-based car sales ever have been brokered by the likes of Bonhams in the past few months.

They included the June sale of a 2003 Ferrari Enzo sold for $2.6million, completed by RM Sotheby's.

At the time it was the priciest car ever sold online but the record was broken again just three months later. 

In September a 1966 Ferrari was sold through Gooding and Company for just over $3million.  

The JFK limos are not expected to break any records when they go up for sale as part of The American Presidential Experience auction. 

Also up for grabs is a lock of George Washington's hair for $500, a stone from the White House for $1,500 and Theodore Roosevelt's signature for $500, as well as a replica of the JFK-era Air Force One.

Kennedy often traveled in an open-top Lincoln Continental but his death transformed presidential cars. 

They have now been completely redesigned to prioritize safety and security, and to enclose the president in more layers of armor and protection. 

JFK's successor Lyndon B.

Johnson traveled in an armored Continental. 

By Bush's era, he was traveling in a Cadillac DeVille that was more like a tank than a car. 

Current presidents travel in 'The Beast', first introduced for Obama's inauguration in 2009. 

The Cadillac Presidential Limousine weighs in at a massive 10 tons and comes with a formidable array of weapons and armory, as well as eight-inch walls and five-inch windows that are heavier than a commercial jet.
