The $350,000 sale Friday of a 2021 Shelby Super Snake Count’s Kustoms Edition pushed money raised for charity at Barrett-Jackson auctions beyond $150 million, officials said.
Camp Freedom, Inc. will benefit from the sale Friday afternoon, Jan. 27, during the 2023 Scottsdale Auction at WestWorld.
“We’re incredibly proud of this historic milestone that builds on the legacy my parents Nellie and Russ, and Tom Barrett started more than five decades ago,” Craig Jackson, chairman and CEO of Barrett-Jackson, said.
“Over the years, the collector car family at Barrett-Jackson has supported more than 200 charities. Some of our most memorable auction moments have been the sale of charity vehicles, with the excitement that builds as the bids pour in.
"I want to thank our generous bidders and consignors for helping change countless lives over the years from the Barrett-Jackson auction block.”
Friday also featured the charity auction of a 2023 Ford F-150 Lightning 4x4 Super Crew Pickup that sold for $275,000 to benefit Fighter Country Foundation.
“Raising over $150 million for charity is an amazing achievement worth celebrating,” said Carolyn Jackson, chief philanthropy officer for Barrett-Jackson.
“We are looking forward to continuing to raise funds and awareness for countless charities. I am truly astounded by the generosity of the collector car community.”
