[edit] Summary
The Gräf & Stift Double Phaeton automobile in which the Archduke Francis Ferdinand was riding at the time of his assassination on June 28, 1914. The car is part of the permanent collection at the Heeresgeschichtliches, the Museum of Military History, in Vienna, Austria. The bullet which killed the Archduke's wife Sophie left a hole in the side of the car which can be seen above the rear wheel as a small silver circle in the black paint.
Archduke Ferdinand wore a bullet proof coat beause at the time assasinations were going on, so Gavrilo Princip had no other way of killing him other than a head shot.
