I agree with the group, I think this will saturate the market with too many high end cars for the market to support, my guess is he will lose some money and there will be a few lucky guys that add a car or two to their collection that may have been just out of their reach prior to this upcoming opportunity.
Definitely seems like an odd approach for a guy worth that kind of money, my guess is with him being a construction guy and things improving in that area he is probably looking for some losses to offset an increased income.
Regardless, I can imagine walking into his shop today as myself or after the auction as him.
I love watching car auctions.
I saw the one where Mr Pratte bought a charity car and then put it back in for auction. I think it was for the Wounded warriors, guy gets my salute
Surprises me that he wouldn't sell/unload a large portion of his collection to buddies.
Anybody know where I can find a list of his collection? The docket isn't loaded in the B J site. Would really like to know if he owns a 60's Pontiac Banshee.
According to multiple sources, Pratte’s decision to sell is simply a case of buying everything he’s ever wanted. Having accomplished that goal, he’s ready to do something new.
