KISSIMMEE, Fla. – Feelin presidential?
What if we told you, you can take home your very own fully armored presidential limousine?
You can and it’s all part of the world’s largest collector car auction underway in Kissimmee.
“It’s historical and it’s amazing,” said Peter Levy of the Hot Rod Collection. “This is one of three vehicles that was commissioned by the United States Government for the presidential candidates from 1993 through 1996.”
This 1996 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham Presidential Limousine is the only one currently available for public ownership and was custom built for President Clinton during his administration.
“As you can see we’ve got the Presidential flags indicative of all the presidential limos when it was being utilized. It’s a beautiful timepiece and a piece of history,” said Levy.
The limo is fully armored. The windows are bulletproof.
“The windows are three inches thick and it was a special design requested by the government and General Motors. They worked together to create this vehicle,” said Levy.
The door weighs nearly 400 pounds.
“The undercoating of this limo is completely steel-plated… Inside the casing is a fire retardant system that protects the interior from any gas. It’s the ultimate presidential security machine,” said Levy.
The interior of the limo has a small television connected to a VHS player. (Do you even know what that is?)
“The front is the cockpit for the driver which is pretty standard for a Cadillac, except it’s got a control center in the glove compartment has controls the strobe lights like a police car. There’s also an intercom system and radio. This allowed you to speak through a microphone and speak to secret service,” said Levy.
And under the hood is a custom built engine. There’s also a noticeable empty space where Levy said housed special equipment that the CIA took out before it was sold originally.
The 1996 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham Presidential Limousine will be crossing the auction block on Saturday, January 18th. Representatives from Hot Rod Collection wouldn’t say how much they expect the limo to go for, but it last sold at auction in 2013 for $275,000 dollars so we’ll have to wait and see what the highest bid is.
If you’re not in the market for a new ride, you can still check out the presidential limo and even sit inside it.
It’s one of nearly 5,000 unique vehicles part of the Mecum Auction at Osceola Heritage Park. The event runs through January 19th. Click HERE for ticket information.
