Because everybody loves pictures, Im here to post a few from my time at Barrett Jackson. These are NOT the highlights of the show... you will see those everywhere. They are simply random shots around the show I took because I felt like it. It’s just a fun massive car show wrapped up in an auction while people watching and having a nice few days in AZ.
Of course, I will start with the Corvettes as to properly connect this thread with the Forum.

For those that didn't see, as it came up, the Commentator starts taking as to when you see custom front ends, this was a result of usually an accident!

Love the maroon 63 with flares and the rear spoiler. I had a 63 coupe with flares , bought for 3k, sold years later for 2500. ( they depreciated decades back ) Kept a few good parts but too many around to entertain the cost of removing the flares which closed minds like mine thought taboo. Never came across another, just the stock versions. Now they are in vogue and probably higher valued in some cases. Cute plate " TIME2SPLT " . Great pictures. The Jag with the side opening trunk, never saw that before. White 58 Vette beyond perfection. With 367 Corvettes on the block there should have been some buys that didn't reach reserve.
From what I have read...... values were down. Your opinion on what you viewed ?

There is something about a Ferrari that makes an old man young, an ugly man attractive, a poor man rich and a driver a mechanic.
Congrats on the purchase, they are fun to drive!

Thanks for posting these photos! I very much enjoy seeing these, the view from the TV camera man just isn't the same.
Enjoy the hell out of that 308, those are the last of the fun-to-drive analog Enzo-era cars.

I was telling the guys at work I would have bought the split window and returned the body to stock. What did it sell for 55k? Half of what it could have brought.
