A day at Barrett Jackson
Permalink  
 

We spent the day at Barrett Jackson yesterday. The actual auction was interesting but only a small part of the total experience. Not as many auto accessory vendors as I expected. They did have vendors selling everything from fur coats to artwork to jewelry to boats and airplanes. Obviously the people watching was amazing. There were some cars I would not think would run to cross the block to the majority of cars like club members drive to the finest Concours d'Elegance grade vehicles.

The Mecum auction in FL had some very high car.  Heard one sold for $2,675,000.  Any big sales at Barrett?

 Mitch, No pictures of anything you haven't seen on TV, but since you asked...It is hard to take a picture of a total experience.

Went last year. The word that comes to mind is 'circus'  

Still fun to go and check it off my bucket list.
