I was just reading in The Arizona Republic that Craig Jackson has an orange '70 Hemi 'Cuda convertible that he predicts will bring $2 million in Scottsdale next month based on "There were only 14 made, and 50 people want one." There's also going to be a 1969 Dodge Daytona NASCAR racecar highlighting his lineup. Of course, all 1100 collector cars (up from 900 last year) in this auction are NO RESERVE. He supposedly hand-picked the 1100 cars (including 100 corvettes, one '53 with serial no. 003) from 5,000 entries. It'll be interesting to see how many other Mopars will be in the show, because I get real tired of seeing all the General Motors stuff everybody already has.

I used to go to this event every other year or so just to see how the other half lives. But this year, the auction has been expanded to nine days (six days of bidding), the auction area has tripled, etc., etc., which translates to too many people & too much congestion! Now, thanks to the Speed channel that you've been bad-mouthing, we will get 33 hours of live coverage of the Barrett-Jackson auction (up from 24) so we can sit in our LazyBoys & relax with a cold one in the comfort of our own homes!
