I got some bad news for the "shot blocking" theory. Based on my pixel counting software, the published specs for the Caddy sedan that was the chase car, Altgens 6, and the shot of the chase car where the ride along SS guy is waved off JFK's limo, SS Agent Ready is not a tall man. You can pretty clearly see that in Altgens 6, where Clint Hill is visibly taller than Ready, and also in the "wave-off" photo, where the SS Agent Don Lawton (?) is almost the same height as Ready, even though Ready is riding the running board (6 inches high at least) and Lawton is standing on the ground.
My pixel counting software gives me a height of 5'7" for Agent Ready. Even standing on the running board his height is no more than 6'2".
I got the math equations on this worked out on paper, but let me plug in the numbers given previously for JFK's height when seated, and I'll get back to you by the end of the day.
