And yet the "press conference" to discuss the issue at the auction concluded that the car at the auction WAS the original car, even though there were photos from a scrap yard showing the ambulance in the jaws of the crusher, attended to by the then-curator of the Kennedy archives. The consignor said he figured there were 2 cars used in 1963, and one was a "decoy." But would they have bothered to paint the identical ID numbers on both?
I think the fact that the "million dollar car" brought just $120,000 indicated no one there who wanted the car believed it was the real ambulance.
