The Kennedy Car - 1961 Lincoln Continental - 1:43 model

 

The Presidential Parade Vehicle, dubbed X-100 by the US Secret Service, began life as a stock 1961 Lincoln Continental four-door convertible. Ford Motor Company and Hess&Eisenhardt, custom automobile builders of Cincinnati,Ohio, worked together to create the most modern open parade limousine of its day.

The X-100 carried no armour or weapons because the purpose of the car was to make the president more visible, not to provide protection.
That philosophy changed completely after November 22,1963.On that day, President John Kennedy was assassinated while riding in the X-100 through the streets of Dallas.
