Many Blue Oval fans that have been around for a while undoubtedly remember the 1991 Ford F-150 PPG IndyCar Pace Truck, a one-off creation from Roush and McLaren Performance Technologies. This pace truck was used in the PPG IndyCar World Series between 1991 and 1994 and nicknamed “Sport Boss”, beginning life with a white/purple/red livery in 1991-1992, though later resprayed in its current purple/blue/green/yellow scheme. This famous Ford F-150 has bounced around over the years, going up for sale and auction multiple times, and now, that’s set to happen once again.
This time, the 1991 Ford F-150 PPG IndyCar Pace Truck is set to be auctioned off at Mecum’s 2025 Kissimmee sale next month, with all of the proceeds going to benefit Spina Bifida of Jacksonville, Florida – a charitable organization that helps families living with the birth defect. The pace truck currently has 5,145 miles on the clock and still looks to be in fantastic condition, featuring a laundry list of modifications outside, inside, and under the hood. That includes a comprehensive custom body kit, custom doors, an integrated roll bar, headlight and taillight covers, the aforementioned custom paint, 17-inch AZE wheels, roof lights, and a rear bed partition with rear-facing seats.
Inside, the Sport Boss features a pair of Ford Taurus SHO bucket seats, black leather upholstery with purple accents, a full-length center console, an overhead console, and a Midland UHF radio. What’s particularly notable, however, is what lies under the hood – a Roush-modified 5.0L V8 that produces over 500 horsepower, which it sends to the rear wheels via a four-speed automatic transmission.
It’ll certainly be interesting to see what this famous Ford F-150 ultimately hammers for in its latest trip to the auction block, though this time around, it’s being sold with no reserve price. The last time we saw it, the F-150 failed to meet its reserve price and was only bid up to $16,500.
