Late rally star Ken Block has certainly not been forgotten. His Ford F-150 'Hoonitruck' recently sold for a whopping sum at auction.
The late rally star Ken Block's car, "Hoonitruck", has been sold for a huge sum at auction.
The car, a heavily modified 1977 Ford F-150, is known from his iconic Gymkhana videos. Ken Block was a legend in motorsport and car culture, and his cars are still very popular among enthusiasts.
Ken Block was best known for his extreme driving style and spectacular stunts, apart from rallying. He was a pioneer in motorsport and an inspiration to many. His death in 2023 was a great loss to the world of motorsport.
But his legacy lives on through his videos and the cars he built.
The "Hoonitruck" is one of the most iconic cars Ken Block has built. It's a testament to his creativity and his ability to think outside the box.
The car is not just a vehicle, but also a work of art. It is an expression of Ken Block's passion for motorsport and his desire to push the boundaries of what is possible.
The car was sold at the Barrett-Jackson auction in Scottsdale, Arizona. It was not the first time the car had been up for sale.
It had previously been offered for sale for a higher amount. But this time it was sold for $990,000, which is approximately 6.8 million Danish kroner.
It's a significant amount, but it's not surprising when you consider that it's a unique car with a special history.
"Hoonitruck" isn't just a car. It's a piece of motorsport history.
The car is built as a tribute to the pickup truck that Ken Block learned to drive in as a young man. But beyond that, the two cars have very little in common.
The "Hoonitruck" is a highly modified machine with over 900 horsepower. It is designed to drive in all conditions and to perform the most extreme stunts.
The "Hoonitruck" is a symbol of Ken Block's passion for motorsport and his determination to go his own way. The car is proof that anything is possible if you have the will and talent.
The sale of the "Hoonitruck" is a reminder of Ken Block's impact on the world of motorsport. His work and unfortunately untimely death will be remembered by fans and those in the automotive community for many years to come.
