Car collectors and Mopar enthusiasts have something special to anticipate at the upcoming Mecum Auctions in Kissimmee, Florida, as the Josh Hart Mopar® Collection — packed with rare muscle cars and high-performance classics — heads to the auction block. The event, running January 6–18, kicks off the 2026 collector car auction season with some truly remarkable machines.
A Gearhead’s Collection Hits the Block
Josh Hart, a lifelong Mopar fan, NHRA Top Fuel drag racing ace, and founder of the Burnyzz auto modification and restoration facility in Ocala, Florida, has amassed a standout fleet of modern Mopar performance vehicles over the years. Rather than keep the collection tucked away, Hart is offering these prized rides a chance to find new homes with fellow enthusiasts and collectors.
Hart’s decision to sell comes as he shifts focus to a full-time Top Fuel racing program with the iconic John Force Racing Team in 2026, which will take him to over 20 NHRA national events and leave little time to manage his extensive collection.
Standouts Up for Auction
The lineup heading to Kissimmee features a mix of collectible modern Mopars and drag-ready machines, many with incredibly low mileage or unique build histories:
- Rare Challenger Drag Pak cars — race-prepared and ready for street or strip life
- Challenger SRT® Demon 170 examples, including ones with just a handful of miles
- Multiple Dodge Vipers showcasing classic high-performance engineering
- A vintage Dodge Power Wagon, blending rugged heritage with collector appeal
Hart notes that several of these vehicles are among the earliest examples of their specific models off the assembly line, making them desirable pieces for collectors, museum displays, or even highly-specialized daily drivers.
A Collector’s Opportunity
“With my new duties and extensive travel this year, it made sense to find these cars appreciative caretakers,” Hart reflected, highlighting both his passion for Mopar machines and his excitement for what’s next in his racing career.
For fans of modern Mopar performance and automotive history alike, the Mecum Kissimmee Auction presents a rare opportunity to own a piece of one collector’s remarkable journey — from street domination to drag-strip glory.
