Hearse That Drove Earnhardt Put On eBay


A 1996 Lincoln Town Car Hearse being billed as Dale Earnhardt Sr.’s “Last Ride” is up for bid on eBay.

The asking price for the hearse is $1.5 million and, with around six days left in the bidding, there have so far been no takers.
The ad says that the vehicle is located in Huntersville, N.C., which is just north of Charlotte. According to the listing, “On Feb. 21, 2001, this hearse took Mr. Earnhardt from a Huntersville, North Carolina funeral home to his final resting place. This is 100% verifiable to qualified buyers.”

Seems about right.  I mean, Justin Bieber's hair just sold for like a billion dollars on eBay.  A vampire killing kit sold for over $4,000.  Someone bought ghosts in a jar and an actual shrunken head.  And hell, someone got $32 for a shark fetus (you think I'm kidding about that stuff, but I'm not).  So why not No. 3's death cab?  Though, bidders should be aware that the hearse has had some work done under the hood following an incident on its way to the Earnhardt ceremony, shown below.
