That was Elvis Presley's private jet. It is about to take off at the auction1 block. The jet has been sitting on a runway in Roswell, New Mexico for over 30 years with red velvet2 seats and a redshag carpet. The 1962 Lockhead Jetstar was custom designed by the King.

However, the plane will need some work to fly. The red Jetstar has no engines and needs a restoration of its cockpit.

Liveauctioneers.com says the jet was owned by Elvis and his father before going to a private owner in New Mexico. The plane estimated between $2-3.5 million. It will be auctioned3 May 27 at the GWS Auctions4.

猫王的私人飞机……即将在拍卖场起飞。这架装饰有红色天鹅绒座椅和红色粗毛地毯的飞机已经在新墨西哥州罗斯韦尔的跑道上停放了30多年。这款1962洛克希德捷星飞机由猫王本人亲手设计。

然而，要想起飞，这架飞机还需要进行一些处理。这架红色捷星已经没了引擎，驾驶舱也需要修复。Liveauctioneers.com网站称，这架飞机归猫王和他的父亲所有，之后被新墨西哥州的一位私人拍走了。

这架飞机估值在200万~350万美元之间，将于5月27日在GWS拍卖会上拍卖。
