A Look At Hulk Hogan’s Cars Throughout The Years

From muscle cars to trucks and choppers, Hulk Hogan has displayed a true passion for amazing American machines throughout the years.

Hulk Hogan probably needs no introduction here, or anywhere else, for that matter. Throughout the eighties, he, along with a plethora of other professional wrestlers and chairman Vince McMahon, catapulted the industry to the masses. And with the advent of Wrestlemania, brought the world of pro wrestling into the homes of millions of viewers.

He is perhaps the greatest wrestler in history and certainly paved the way for men like Steve Austin, John Cena, and of course The Rock. But even beyond the eighties, amidst rumors of his inevitable retirement, he came back to start the NWO – a monumental moment in wrestling history, to say the least.

On his rise to the top, Hulk also definitely raked up quite a bit of money, and we’ll give you one guess as to what he did with all that extra cash. Let’s take a look at some of his most epic rides he’s driven throughout these long years.

The Infamous Dodge Viper

Throughout the nineties, this Dodge Viper was “all the rage.” And there was, of course, a good reason for this. It was one of the most beautiful and fierce sports cars on the market, equipped with a roaring 8-liter V10. Hogan himself was very fond of this particular vehicle, so he purchased one, and famously adorned it in his specific wrestling colors.

The latest Viper on the market came in 2017, but this model here was produced in 1994. It was known as the SR 1. And with the Hulkster’s love for all things muscle, it doesn’t surprise us one bit that he fell in love with the Viper’s beefy V10.

The Bikes

Still packing quite a set of biceps, the Hulkster points to a monumental motorcycle that bears the infamous NWO colors and label. The movement in wrestling helped dawn a new era in the sport and catapulted this man’s career for at least another decade.

He is also a fan of motorcycles and boasts a large bike collection. He has been seen in is films riding all kinds of bikes and even came to the ring a few times on a bike with the members of the Hells Angels accompanying him, including the infamous former member, Chuck Zito.

The bike in the photo just so happens to be the original NWO bike! It currently sits at Hogan’s Beach Shop in Clearwater Beach, Florida.

His History With Sports Cars & Muscle Cars

Pictured here is the 1980 C3 Corvette, and seeing that he was the king of the eighties wrestling era, it’s fitting that he was photographed with this car that so embodied that era in the American automotive history.

But fast sports cars weren’t all he was into, per se. He also has and has owned a variety of other vehicles which includes a 1969 Plymouth Road Runner and even a 1980s era Rolls Royce.

 

His Trucks

Of course, Hogan also owned a Hummer (which he apparently got rid of), and this Chevy Tahoe, pictured here. As far as trucks go, the Tahoe isn’t all that extravagant, but it’s reliable, and sometimes a reliable vehicle can indeed become a prized possession, no matter how “regular” it may seem.

 

His Many Charitable Auctions

And as far as trucks go, he also had a Ford F1 1952 that he sold at auction and gave all the proceeds to charity. He has been synonymous with giving back to the community, a community that he has claimed helped him get where he is. he calls them Hulkamaniacs, essentially his fans, and he definitely has a lot of them.

Interestingly enough, Hogan also auctioned off his coveted Dodge Viper at the start of this year at Mecum Auctions and gave the proceeds to his favorite charity: the 50 legs Charity, as was also reported by comicbook.com

 

The Demon Still Lurks In His Garage

But not to worry, he still has at least one Dodge in his garage, and it’s a beast… or rather a demon. The Dodge Demon pictured here is one of his prized vehicular possessions and we’d surmise that it more than makes up for the loss of his Viper. Besides, when the proceeds go to a great cause, maybe you end up missing the item a little less. The fact that he did a good thing makes him feel better about the whole thing. Knowing him, we’re sure of it.
