One of the most famous cars of the famous racer and showman Ken Block – the Ford F-150 Hoonitruck, built on the basis of a 1977 pickup truck and equipped with a Ford GT engine, will be auctioned by the Barrett-Jackson auction house. The event will take place in Scottsdale, Arizona from January 18 to 26, 2025.
Created by the Hoonigan team in collaboration with Detroit Speed in 2018, the unique vehicle is built on a tubular frame and features aluminum body panels that replicate the look of the classic F-150. The car features flared wheel arches, a custom Ford Performance intake manifold, and twin turbochargers protruding from the hood.

Under the hood, the Hoonitruck is powered by a twin-turbocharged 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 engine that produces 914 horsepower. The powerplant, based on the engine from the Le Mans race-winning Ford GT, is mated to a 6-speed Sadev gearbox and all-wheel drive.
Previously, Ken Block’s extreme tracked Ford F-150 pickup truck was put up for sale. This modified car, known from its stunt videos on YouTube, was valued at $195 thousand on the online platform LBI Limited, which is equivalent to approximately 17.6 million rubles at current exchange rates.
