Ford Motor Company is selling a one-off 2014 Mustang Cobra Jet NHRA prototype at the Barrett-Jackson auction in Las Vegas later this month, with proceeds to benefit the National Multiple Sclerosis Society.
In addition to giving away this competition-ready orange satin Cobra Jet, Ford will also offer Ride-and-Drives and hot laps at Mandalay Bay Event Center featuring the Shelby GT500, Boss 302 Mustang, Focus ST, Fiesta ST and other Ford and Shelby vehicles.

Moreover, the winning bidder will become an honorary member of Team Mustang and will receive full backstage passes to the company’s Product Development Center, Design Studios and Ford Racing. The auction event will take place in Las Vegas from September 26 through 28.

“We’re proud to offer the opportunity for a serious competitor to up their game with this Mustang Cobra Jet,” says Steve Ling, North America car marketing manager for Ford. “But, just as important, we’re honored the proceeds will support the National Multiple Sclerosis Society’s work with those living with this disabling disease of the central nervous system. Through our long-standing relationship with Barrett-Jackson, we continue to support charities through exceptional vehicle sales.”
