Default Re: Barrett Jackson Las Vegas

I was there from late thursday until the last car sold on saturday. I thought prices were insanley high on friday...95% of the car were Junk or wanna be Pro-Toruing cars (car with just big wheels and lowered)..

Camaros and Tri 5 Chevys were hott!!! T-Birds and 66'& 67' Chevelles were down alot from what Ive seen..

Saturday price fell off alot towards mid day, they had some NICE custom cars that didnt bring any money at all.. I felt bad for a few of the guys because they had some QUALITY CUSTOMS..

Barrett attracts the guys that like pigs in lip stick (junk car with a nice paint jobs) I was amazed at the low prices of the few Good legit Quality cars there vs the junk that brought HUGE money! I had a list of about 6 cars that I checked out before hand, I almost got the X Kevin Hand 70 Z28 with 3,xxx miles but got out bid on the 3rd and final call.. I wish I would have bid again NOW! but when you factor in 10% commission and shipping that kills it!

Over all I didnt see any SMOKING HOT DEALS, except for a couple of customs and Craigs JAG XJ 220.

It was funny to watch the drunk guys in the sky boxes throwing there money around buying junk just so the could be on TV.. If they know anything about cars I bet there going to be crying when they sober up and the transporter shows up to drop off there new "GEMS" lol.

I had a blast and I could Barrett Vegas being highly sucessful in the future! Only bad thing was the distance between where the cars were displayed and where the auction was taking place.. Id definately take some cheap drivers out there next year but until they bring back the reserve I wouldnt chance a good car..
