Ford will be auctioning off a 2010 Shelby GT500, a 2010 F-150 SVT Raptor and a Ford Racing Mustang Cobra Jet at the Barrett-Jackson collector car auction this weekend with the proceeds going to the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation.
The Shelby GT500 is based off the new 2010 Mustang and features a supercharged 5.4-liter V-8 engine that produces 540 horsepower and 510 foot-pounds of torque. Heavily updated in the recent refresh, the car's biggest change is a drastically improved interior that features higher quality materials and a more modern design.
Ford's F-150 SVT Raptor is the company's first SVT truck since the Lighting, but instead of being a high powered street racer the new truck is designed for off-road racing. It features over 12 inches of rear suspension travel and 11.2 inches up front thanks to a radically altered front suspension and Fox Racing Shox shocks.
The last car up for auction is a Ford Racing Mustang Cobra Jet which is also known as the Mustang FR500CJ. Built as an affordable entry-level factory car ready for NHRA racing it features a supercharged 5.4-liter V8 engine that produces 400 horsepower, this allows the racer to rip through the quarter mile in just 10 seconds.
The vehicles will be auctioned off this Saturday at 10PM EST and viewers can watch it live on the SPEED channel.
