One of the most sought after cars ever made will be sold in the Tri-Cities this week.

Bids already have climbed above a quarter million dollars and aren’t expected to slow down before the live auction Saturday.

To say that a chance to purchase one is exceedingly rare, is an understatement.

A 1967 Shelby GT500 Super Snake. Only one was ever made by muscle car legend Carroll Shelby, but five years ago, Shelby Motors built 10 more to spec.

The cars are iconic, and highly sought after. They’re also one of the rarest in the world, because once a collector gets their hands on one, they aren’t likely to let it go.

The continuation models were sold for $250,000 each, and the original sold at auction in 2019 for $2.2 million.

They also host a regular Cars and Caffeine event with Pasco Police Department and Tri-Cities Car Culture.

The auction kicks off at noon on Saturday at 3135 Rickenbacker Dr. in Pasco, near the Tri-Cities Airport.
