What happens here

This segment delves into the exhibit related to the JFK assassination, showcasing the actual 1956 Cadillac Secret Service Parade Car, known as the 'Queen Mary,' which was directly behind President Kennedy's limousine on November 22, 1963. The owner discusses the car's modifications, including extra-wide running boards and rear steps for Secret Service agents. He addresses conspiracy theories about a Secret Service agent accidentally firing a rifle from this car and explains how the car ended up in his possession after being sold multiple times. The exhibit also includes a meticulously crafted replica of JFK's 1962 Lincoln Presidential Limousine (X-100), accurately built to the exact specifications of the original vehicle, which was famously used in various documentaries and even by the Secret Service for re-enactments of the assassination event. The owner explains the original X-100's fate, noting that it was painted black and now resides at the Henry Ford Museum. Additionally, the exhibit features a window from the Texas School Book Depository, located next to the actual window from which Lee Harvey Oswald fired, offering a diorama view of the street below.
