I'm gonna fly home for Christmas for a couple days so no worries there but thanks for the offer Boss. Is that car auction close or around the Phoenix area? Wait... I seem to remember a huge auction going on 2 years ago that was on the northeast side of the 101 loop that I think was a huge car show. Is that it? Was going on like the last week or so of January. Anyway, I've never been to one, that would be a blast to hook up for.
Oh btw, my thread, I can hijack it
Yes it is NE of PHX on the 101. This Auction will have everything you can imagine. Sort of like a carshow where the cars are for sale. A lot of exotic muscle cars that most read about only in books, never see, and certainly can't afford to own. You know.. Hemi Cudas that go for 6 figures.. things like that.
Then the Pavillions.. about 10 mins from the auction is supposedly the longest running, weekly car gathering in the nation. Every Sat, year round, rain or shine (it is almost always shine here)... anything from about 400 cars to 1500-1800 during auction weekend. You will see money flying around like you wouldn't beleive during the weekend. One guy next to me had 5 cars he dragged over to the Pavillions... and each was priced mid 20's to mid 30's. Sold three of them while I was parked next to him. $1k bills being handed around as deposits etc. WILD !
Then the street car, tuner crowd rolls in a little later in the evening and the women that come in with that crowd..... LAWD !
They did a magazine shoot of a tricked out Acura ... which the asked if they could shoot in front of my Cobra. I said.. SURE....
The babe they had as a model.... HOT !
Yeah... we will have to do the car circuit when you get here.
