Ken Block has been a household name in the automotive community for over 15 years, at least since the first Gymkhana Practice video dropped on YouTube in 2008, though some might have known him before that as a DC Shoes guy. In the process of making a dozen or more Gymkhana and adjacent videos, Block wrecked a whole lot of shit. He was hard on equipment, which is part of what made his Gymkhana video series so damn enjoyable to watch.

Block’s fatal snowmobile crash early last year sparked an outpouring of love from the community. Block’s family has dedicated his memory to helping young up-and-comers make it as artists, entrepreneurs, and extreme sports athletes, as well as providing helmet safety for middle schoolers. This philanthropy is run through the 43 Institute nonprofit, and the auction started on 4/3, celebrating Block’s race number.

Block’s family put up a number of items from his personal archive treasure trove. A full 43 unique items are up on eBay right now for bidding to benefit 43 Institute, and this is your opportunity to go bid on them. Click through the following slides to see my fifteen favorite items from the auction!

I can only imagine how many front lips they went through in the filming of Gymkhana Seven. The Hoonicorn was a real rowdy boy, and this is a truly unique piece of it that you can buy.

You probably won’t be able to bolt these up to your car and put a tire on them. Ken had a set of custom Fifteen52 wheels on his EscortCosworth that was used in the filming of Gymkhana Ten to shoot sparks at night. It was cool. Now you can have one.

After his original Cosworth burned to the ground in New England, Ken built a second Escort Cosworth even better than before. With custom bodywork and a slew of exquisite liveries, this car was the hotness. This front bumper was used across many events on Ken’s “Cossie World Tour” in 2019 and 2020. Go buy it.

Speaking of front bumpers, here’s a real piece of racing history that you might want to hang on your garage wall or something. This is Ken’s front bumper from his 2015 World Rally Championship car. I expect this to go for real money, but if you have real money go bid on it!

With a livery designed by one of my favorite modern artists, Felipe Pantone, this race suit is hot. If you’re the kind of guy who collects racing suits, this guy is the one you need to add to your collection. As of this writing, it’s already at $820 and there are nearly ten days remaining in the auction, so bid big if you want it.

If there were any item in this auction that best portrays Ken’s signature “Just ain’t care” driving style, it has to be this mangled turbofan from Gymkhana Six.

OK, this one is a close second to the turbofan. This bent wheel is pretty damn cool to look at. I don’t think it would be a good idea to drive around on this wheel, but as a display piece it rules. It’s from the Hoonicorn, after all.

This wheel was used throughout a successful KB Global Rallycross campaign in 2015, including his round-one victory in Fort Lauderdale over Scott Speed. You can have a piece of race history in your living room. Or bedroom. Whatever, I won’t judge you.

If you like your gears as crunchy as a bag of potato chips, then this one is for you. During the iconic Randy’s Donuts drift scene in Gymkhana Seven, this gear was lunched. One of my favorite scenes from one of my favorite YouTube videos. Get ‘em.

Ken’s now-iconic run up Pikes Peak for Climbkhana was just spectacular to watch. Because the Hoonicorn was making so much power and the incline was so steep, these clutches didn’t stand a chance. Just look at how hot these things got! Incredible.

If you want a clean fender for your Escort Cosworth, keep looking. This one has already been in a bender. Which is why it is cool. You should exchange money for this.

Apparently this bike was used to haul around in the pits during the 2015 GRC season, and it was custom built for Ken by Specialized. If you like mountain biking and want to haul some stuff with you, maybe you should pick this one up.

Modernica Tireslayer Chair

My final recommendation is this limited-edition Eames-style fiberglass chair built by Modernica in southern California back in 2018. That year Ken’s livery was done by another of my favorite modern artists, It’s A Living, and the livery was translated to a small run of these chairs. This is the first one of 224 examples built. Of everything on the list, this is the one I’m bidding on, so please don’t bid against me. Thankfully there is a second one available as well.
