Former Baywatch star and animal rights activist, Ms. Pamela Anderson, is putting her 2000 Dodge Viper RT/10 sports car (much like the one pictured here) up for auction. A portion of the proceeds will be donated to PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals).
Ms. Anderson has been heavily involved with PETA for several years now, calling the organization her “ethical advisors.” Meanwhile, the auctioneers have described her car as sporting a “soft-top convertible roof, front spoiler, racing pinstriping and a [doh] luxurious leather interior.” No wonder Anderson wants to get rid of it.
The auction (which is part of an event with the theme ‘Blonde Bombshells’ and will also be offering rare footage of Marilyn Monroe from The Misfits) takes place at the Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino in Las Vegas on June 21 and 22. The Viper RT/10 is a fiberglass-bodied, two-seater roadster with an 8.0-liter V-10 engine that develops 450 horsepower and sends the car to speeds in excess of 180 mph. This one is expected to fetch somewhere between $30,000 to $50,000.
There, I got the end without making one immature joke about airbags. Darn it, I just did.
