Anyone watching the Barret Jackson auction?

Prices look promising...in the context that people are spending money again...

Just flipped it on. Love watching it and have ever since its been on speed. I find it very entertaining, sure a little unrealistic at times, but heh!?
Lot of great trivia too...love listening to Mangante(spelling?)

For Wednesday prices seem really good. Upgraded cars seem to be holding their own as well if not better than stockers. It will be interesting to see what some of the better cars do over the next couple of days.

I wish Speed / BJ would figure out a better viewing format - maybe split screen or PIP. I understand that they need to sell advertising and engage soft core viewers but you're not seeing a quarter of the cars going across any more.

Regardless - looks like a positive start...

Sharon and I are flying out on Thursday. No agenda, least of all buying cars Lots of looking and wishing!

From what I've seen tonight, looks like there is some cool cars this year and the prices are looking good. I've been out there the last four years, but will have to miss it this year. Did I see the Roadster Shop '62 Black Corvette sitting in the main pavilion?

Enjoy it Bret -- it's always a good time.


Just find Charley if you want to buy something - he's a good bidder...


Oh yeah -- and if you want to bid on Dragon -- I'd be really proud of you!!

Greg, Charley said he's between money at this point. I talked to him at the Gala...

The red Camaro that sold for $110,000 including commissions was bought by a guy I used to work with, who I think owns a Harley dealership now


He got beat out at the last second last year on a similar build.

hehe...looks like you guys are really great at bidding with my money [or lack of]
My wife pulled my bidders card...I just bought her a really clean 31,000 mile67 Chevelle to build for her this fall.
She's thinking AMG Chevelle...I'm liking it!

Yeah - I was pestering him to bid on the Rusty Wallace race car... and that was the same response I got.... I'd like to be as between as he is.
