Well, it wasn't correct insofar as the discussion of the limousine in which JFK was killed. The description of the link did not make this distinction regarding the " JFK Bubble Top Limousine." I think it would be safe to say that the only Lincoln limousine associated with Kennedy would be the one in which he was assassinated, and that the link and description given could have led to this confusion, which it did.

BTW, the film clip nicely shows off the dark blue of the stretch limo in the color photos. Wonder why they painted it black afterwards?

But even more so, why did they rebuild it at all? I still think it's creepy that they kept the car, much less put it back into service. It's like reserving Abe Lincoln's seat at Ford's Theatre for future presidents to use when they go to enjoy a play. Why?

Oh well, it's Halloween after all.
