Josh Hart will sell his personal Mopar car and truck collection during the January 6–18 Mecum Kissimmee Auction, marking a visible shift as he begins his tenure as a Top Fuel driver with John Force Racing.

 

Hart, a lifelong Mopar enthusiast, said the decision reflects his commitment to fully align with John Force Racing and its long-standing Chevrolet sponsorship as he prepares for the 2026 NHRA season. The auction will be conducted by Mecum Auctions at its annual Kissimmee event in Florida.

 

“I am going all in with John Force Racing in my pursuit of a Top Fuel world championship and I wanted to show that I am also all in when it comes to representing our sponsors like Chevrolet,” Hart said. “Chevrolet is an iconic manufacturer, and I will be very proud to wear the Chevy bowtie on my Burnyzz Speed Shop Top Fuel dragster and my uniform. I can’t wait for the 2026 season to start.”

 

One of the featured vehicles in the auction will be Hart’s race-ready Dodge Drag Pak Challenger, which he drove during the 2025 NHRA Flexjet Factory Stock Showdown Series. The car represents the competitive bridge between Hart’s previous Mopar-focused racing efforts and his current Top Fuel program.

 

The collection includes multiple Dodge Vipers, several Dodge Drag Pak Challengers and a restored Dodge Power Wagon. Hart said each vehicle has been maintained to a high standard, with many featuring low mileage and personalized build details.

 

Hart built the collection over several years, focusing on rare production runs and end-of-line models. He said the decision to sell was not made lightly but aligns with a broader professional transition.

 

“All of the cars in my collection have been prized possessions, but I saw this as an opportunity to find them a new home with collectors that will appreciate them as much as I did,” Hart said. “Some of the cars are some of the earliest cars to roll of the assembly line. The Drag Paks are amazing cars that I have had since they first were released. This is a great mix of cars that could be museum pieces or the perfect daily driver.”

 

Among the headline offerings is a matched pair consisting of a 2018 Demon with 80 miles and a 2023 Dodge Challenger SRT Demon 170 with just three miles. The vehicles share matching VINs and were specially built for Hart, complete with factory crates, and will be sold together.

 

The auction also includes a 2017 Dodge Hellcat, the final manual-transmission example produced, with 700 miles. A 2017 Viper GTC from the 1-of-1 program, producing 1,200 horsepower through a twin-turbo setup, carries just 300 miles.

 

Hart’s race inventory extends beyond showroom models. A 2021 Drag Pak, driven by Hart during the 2025 NHRA Flexjet Factory Stock Showdown Series, will cross the block alongside a fully built 1967 Power Wagon featuring a Hellephant power plant on a Rubicon frame with 37-inch tires.

 

Additional offerings include multiple high-production-number vehicles and some of the last models to roll off the assembly line, each loaded with carbon fiber, personalized build sheets addressed to Hart and finished in triple black. Four more Drag Paks and another Viper ACR round out the collection.

 

For Hart, the sale represents both an ending and a beginning as he shifts his full focus to Top Fuel competition with John Force Racing.

 

“This was about commitment,” Hart said. “I’m all in on what comes next.”
