The limousine, in which US President John F. Kennedy was riding on the day of his assassination, went on to serve three other presidents

The tragic car, which is now at the end of the road in the Henry Ford Museum in Dearborn, Michigan, was used until 1977, years after the assassination, by presidents Richard Nixon, Gerald Ford and Lyndon Johnson, CBS News reported.

Museum’s curator Matt Anderson told the publication that when Kennedy had the car, it was not armoured in any way, shape or form and the tires were not bulletproof.

He said that there was no bulletproof glass, it did have a removable plastic top, and was just Plexiglas

Anderson said that after the accident, the car was rebuilt as a true armored vehicle and the biggest change they made in modifying the car was putting in a permanent roof that could not be removed, while surrounding the whole vehicle with bullet-resistant glass. 

An expert at John F Kennedy’s assassination has claimed that a Cuban hitman was the second assassin who was involved in the former US President’s “murder plot”

Professor Robert Blakey, who has closely examined the shooting of JFK, has alleged that in 2007, from nowhere, he was contacted by a Cuban exile called Reinaldo Mart­nez, the Daily Express reported

Blakey explained that Mart­nez was in his 80s, and told him that he wanted to get something off his chest before he died

Mart­nez explained to Blakey that anti-Castro leader Tony Cuesta, a celebrated hero to Cuban exiles in the US, had told him that a comrade, Herminio D­az had confessed before dying that he had “participated” in Kennedy’s assassination

Cuesta said that D­az was a known political assassin, a marksman and had joined the anti-Castro struggle that so many exiles felt Kennedy had betrayed

Blakey added that Mart­nez’s claims were credible and “a breakthrough of historic importance”.
