DEARBORN, Mich., Jan. 8, 2016 – Ford Motor Company and Jay Leno, renowned auto enthusiast and star of Jay Leno's Garage, are teaming up to auction the TV legend's personal one-of-one 2000 Harley-Davidson F-150 at the 45th Anniversary Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale Auction at WestWorld of Scottsdale.

All proceeds will benefit National Multiple Sclerosis Society, the country's leading organization helping people affected by multiple sclerosis through cutting-edge research, advocacy and education. Live TV coverage of the auction of this custom F-150 will air on Velocity on Jan. 29.

'Jay Leno and Ford Motor Company share a passion for special vehicles and charity,' said Jim Owens, Ford Performance marketing manager. 'We enjoy working with celebrities like Jay Leno who support a worthwhile cause that makes a positive difference in people's lives. It's a great story, because organizations can receive the help they need, while automotive enthusiasts get a chance to own a one-of-a-kind vehicle.'

Leno will be on the block to help auction his Harley-Davidson F-150, (Lot #3006). Representing the first collaborative effort between Ford and Harley-Davidson, this distinctive pickup captured the imagination of auto enthusiasts across North America when it was introduced in May 2000.

The truck is the only one in existence that features the SVT Lightning powertrain. Equipped with a supercharged 5.4-liter Triton V8, this custom monochrome black F-150 features distinctive Harley-Davidson orange pin-striping and badging and 20-inch styled chrome wheels. It cranks out approximately 360 horsepower that exits through a specially tuned single-inlet dual-outlet exhaust for a more robust sound.

'This is an opportunity to own a truly unique vehicle from my personal collection,' said Leno. 'Not only is this Harley-Davidson F-150 the only one of its kind, it's providing much needed resources to the National Multiple Sclerosis Society. The next owner can feel good knowing that they're getting an outstanding truck and supporting a great cause at the same time.'
