Two private planes owned by Elvis Presley – the Lisa Marie and Hound Dog II – are going up for auction.<\/p>\n
The Lisa Marie, named after his daughter, was bought by Presley in 1975 and refurbished to include a master suite with full-size bed and conference room.<\/p>\n
Neither plane is airworthy but have been on display at Graceland for more than 30 years for fans to tour.<\/p>\n
They are being auctioned off by Julien’s by sealed bids.<\/p>\n
Presley bought the Convair 880 jet in 1975, two years before his death, and spent about $300,000, refitting it and renaming the Lisa Marie. It also features a bathroom with gold taps and a stereo system with 50 speakers.<\/p>\n
