Patriotic 2013 Shelby Supersnake to be Sold in Support of the Wounded Warrior Program's Family Support Fund at Russo and Steele Newport Beach Auction

May 27, 2014 by Russo & Steele

Scottsdale, Arizona (May 26, 2014) – In keeping with this year's Memorial Day observances, we at Russo and Steele Collector Automobile Auctions are honored to announce the addition of a very special 2013 Shelby Supersnake to our fast-growing roster of outstanding consignments to our upcoming Newport Beach auction set for June 19-21.

Offered in support of the Wounded Warrior Program's Family Support fund, this awesome high-performance 'supercar' features patriotic red, white, and blue vinyl wrapping bearing the signatures of hundreds of Americans in silent tribute to the wounded warriors of our country's Armed Forces and their families.

In addition to the widebody kit by Shelby American, this special Supersnake is powered by the top 850-horsepower 5.8-liter V-8 engine complete with a liquid-cooled 4.3-liter Kenne-Bell supercharger providing induction, an upgraded Shelby performance cooling system, and a Borla high-performance exhaust system for truly stunning performance.

Reworked underpinnings include Shelby springs, struts, and sway bar.

Having covered an approximate 26,000 actual miles, this very special Supersnake was toured through all 48 Continental states on the 'High Five' Tour to thank the American people for their support of our nation's military and to raise much-needed money to build 'smart homes' for our combat-wounded military veterans and their families. Proceeds from the sale of this outstanding 'supercar' will further support the Wounded Warrior Program's Family Support fund in its mission to provide support to the families of those who have been injured, wounded, or killed during combat operations. As such, this offering provides the unparalleled opportunity to thank and support our nation's combat veterans every day of the year.
