Simona de Silvestro 2011's race car, nicknamed "Pork Chop", is up for grab on eBay, NBC Sports revealed.
The car, one of the oldest previous generation chassis to have seen action in 2011, was famously used at Indianapolis two years ago, when de Silvestro crashed her main car.
Despite the heavy weight and the bad reputation of the car -- which earned the chassis its nickname "Pork Chop" --, the Swiss woman managed to qualify for Indy that year.
De Silvestro's PR representative talked up the reputation of "Pork Chop", creating a Twitter account. Now it's entangled in the IndyCar folklore.
Rumour has it that "Pork Chop" is the chassis Marco Andretti drove to his first IndyCar win, back in 2006.
