I'm going to be in Arizona for the Scottsdale auction from January 15th to 19th; are there any members of the Forum in the area that are also going? Or if you're not going to the auction itself and would like to meet up for beer & bench racing or simply show off your cars I'd be up for that as well.
Before anyone gets the idea that I've got big money to spend on a classic car, I'm only going to the auction as an observer not a buyer. I think it will be a great automotive spectacle, and something that's been on my "bucket list" for a while. I'm actually tagging along with my wife who is coming to Tempe for a business conference that happens to be on at the same time. When your wife comes to you and asks "When is that Barrett-Jackson auction that you watch on TV every year? And would you like to go?" What was I supposed to say, no?
I have a couple of car collector customers that are going as well, and I believe they're also going to the Russo & Steele auction so I'll probably check that out, too.
I doubt if there will be any Vegas in the auction; probable a good thing so I won't be tempted.
So please contact me by PM if you're interested in meeting up while I'm there.
