eBay Motors has launched a special sale, “From the Collection: Ken Block,” featuring one-of-a-kind items from the archives of Ken Block, a prominent figure in motorsports. The auction includes auto parts, art pieces, collectibles, and more sourced directly from Ken Block’s viral Gymkhana series, rally races, and other memorable moments. All proceeds will benefit the 43 Institute, founded by the Block family to continue Ken’s legacy. Additionally, fans can purchase limited-run apparel designed in collaboration with Block House Racing.
“Ken Block was an undeniable inspiration to car lovers and for fans everywhere he united automotive and pop culture in a way that no one else could,” said Chris Prill, Global VP of eBay Motors. “We are deeply honoured to partner with the Block family and support Ken’s commitment to the community by connecting our enthusiasts to his legacy through these one-of-one pieces.”
Ken Block, co-founder of DC Shoes, is known for his successful rally career and captivating Gymkhana drives. He expanded motorsports to new audiences and uplifted ambitious individuals lacking proper support for success.
“Ken was passionate about motorsports, action sports, creative arts and giving back to those communities. We founded 43 Institute after his passing to carry on his empowerment of others,” said Lucy Block, Ken’s wife, pro rally driver and Block House Racing principal. “Opening our archives for the first time with eBay Motors and sharing a piece of his career with fans is the perfect way to honor his legacy.”
The auction proceeds will benefit the 43 Institute, which creates opportunities in motorsports, action sports, and creative arts for aspiring talent, regardless of financial means. Bid on this unique collection at the auction at www.ebay.com/KenBlock between April 3, through to April 13, 2024.
