Eddie, I was there last night. What a cool place, it compares to a State Fair. Loads of cool stuff to look at and two days worth of cars to see.
If your there to buy a deal, Wednesday the day. Loads of bargins. Most custom cars that ended up in the $30K range. The Monster stuff was a joke, except for the Dragster and Baja truck.
Had a great time and a most do once in your life.
BTW - I saw the Pro Team guys looking at their prey.

1970 Dodge Challenger Convertible 440 Magnum
Lot # 1242.1
$120,000
Not that I am complaining but it seems some cars are still spending more time on the block than others. I can understand if the bidding is still moving along. Like this one it seemed to be hammered quickly.

I find it interesting that if a vehicle does not reach a "suitable" bid, it is given extra time on the podium and someone from BJ reminds the bidders that the vehicle is worth much more as they did for Shelby's personal Mustang.
Seems that BJ's selling pratices are dependant upon the vehicle...
