(AP) -- DETROIT - You may not know Jack, but you could own a piece of assisted suicide history by placing the winning bid for the van Dr. Jack Kevorkian used during his campaign.

"Dr. Death's" 1968 Volkswagen bus was sold before Kevorkian went to prison for murder in 1999. It's listed for sale on eBay and had a top bid of $3,300 at 11:30 a.m. Monday - three days ahead of the sale.

The seller has posted the vehicle's title, which shows Kevorkian as the owner in 1997.

The current seller says the van isn't drivable and has some water damage.

Al Pacino played Kevorkian in the HBO movie "You Don't Know Jack," which first aired Saturday. The 82-year-old Kevorkian says he helped at least 130 people die from 1990 until 1998 but says he's out of the business now.
