Fox News
After sitting in a New Mexico desert for about 40 years, a private jet once owned by Elvis Presley arrived in Florida to be transformed into a RV by a YouTube star.
Webb bought the battered jet for $234,000 at an auction at the Roswell International Air Center in New Mexico on Jan 8 — which would have been Presley’s 88th birthday. After Elvis died in 1977, the plane sat abandoned on a tarmac in New Mexico.

(Jimmy Webb via FOX 13) Presley bought the jet on Dec. 22, 1976, for $840,000. (Jimmy Webb via FOX 13) Sarah Rumpf is a writer on the breaking news team for Fox News Digital.

"It was the biggest financial purchase I have ever made, outside of a house, and this was ironically more expensive than my house," Webb told FOX 13. "How crazy is that?"
