Barrett-Jackson Auction Starts Today
 
Auction starts today, but found the Mojo MTI listed on Saturday's docket. It is Lot 1309 about 2/3 of the way down Saturday's list. Speed is covering the auction from 12-10 that day, so lets hope they cover the MTI sale. That is one sick boat!

I'm here right now, I have the lighting for the GM booth as well as Eliminator Boats and Cox communications. I will take a grip of pics tommorrow and post up for you guys. We have one of the pre production Corvette ZR1's in our booth, SWEET! They are auctioning off the first ZR1 off of the production line for charity and expect it to fetch upwards of $1mm

This week is gonna get good. I started getting drunk calls from my buddies last night that are down there selling some cars. They were at the kick off party celebrating Carroll Shelby's 85th birthday. I think my buddy Casey kissed Sean Connery on the cheek last night.

This thread could get good as the week goes on. Casey plans on making his presence known. He has already introduced himself to the MOJO crew. I think he's gonna hit them up about the plane they are using to go back and forth to Vegas every day. :cool-smiley-027:

I may have to start turning my phone off at night this week.

SPEED had a few Behind the Scenes of Barrett-Jackson on last night. It was really interesting to watch and see how they pull things off.

We'll be watching..........

A friend of mine has lot #100 which is a sweet beetle convertible. He's hoping it hits about $35,000.00. looks like it will be a while before he comes on though.

DTD 01-15-2008 06:57 PM

Anyone else doing the Fantasy Bid game? I was a few thousand short on the first one.

Mercury_Challenger 01-15-2008 07:13 PM

I thought the shelby GT-H would have went for more than $42K..........what a bummer!

DTD 01-15-2008 07:19 PM

Just saw a wood boat with a steam engine go for $6500. What a pile of junk. Maybe I should put a wood stove on an old tri-hull for next years auction :eek:

RunninHotRacing163.1 01-15-2008 07:44 PM

My uncles 57 Chevy convertible Lot 977 sold for 90k yesterday.
I know he was hoping to get a little more then that.
Seems like the old cars are down a little in price this year.

WARPARTY36 01-19-2008 01:38 PM

If I had a bidders assistant following me and pulling me back, and all up in my face while I was bidding and eating an ice cream cone, he would be picking himself up off of the floor:angry-smiley-038::angry-smiley-038::angry-smiley-038:

That wasn't a run on sentence was it?:D

NKissau 01-19-2008 04:37 PM

I saw that too, how annoying would that be! But he did end up winning the car:cool-smiley-026: Been watching all day to catch the MTI boat, now the wife just called and wants me to meet her for dinner in an hour, exactly when the boat will be on the block.. dang it! I think I'll be late for dinner.
