A 400 Mph Bonneville Land Speed Streamliner Is up for Sale

When it comes to vehicle proving grounds, there is no more revered location than the Bonneville Salt Flats–particularly when it comes to sheer speed numbers. Situated right next to the Utah / Nevada border, the Bonneville Salt Flats are the ultimate proving grounds for vehicles like the 400-mph Bonneville Land Speed Streamliner you see here that was recently sold. This 27′ long, piston-engined, wheel-driven land speed car achieved a flying mile speed of over 400 mph in 2010. Since then, it was purchased, built and rebuilt by a number of great race names before surpassing the 408 mph flying mile and flying kilometer and ultimately ending up in storage for a decade. This streamliner has shed all the cobwebs and is ready to perform again if the price is right. It recently sold for $175,000 on Bring a Trailer, which is proof that purpose built vehicles like this have a place in the market–and, if you have the pocketbook, you can own one just like it.
