Cruisin’ Caskets, a company based in Winchester, California, makes customized caskets that look like stylish hot rods. When the lid is closed, it looks just like car…with a dead body inside.

Should you choose to purchase a casket before you use it permanently, you can also purchase an optional liner that lets it be used as an ice chest.

The Big Bopper was moved to a new casket recently and that means his previously used casket is now up for sale on the internet.

The casket is in good condition, having some minor rust damage and a little lime sentiment that shows water once entered the outside vault, although it seems the interior never suffered water damaged.

If you’d like to see the item in person before you place a bid, it is currently on display in the Texas Musicians Museum.
