Barrett-Jackson to offer paired vehicles at auction
Published December 20th, 2006
12 paired vehicles will be sold at next month’s 36th annual Barrett-Jackson Collector Car Auction.
Seven sets of rare vehicles will cross the auction block together and be sold as matching pairs.
Five other sets will be sold separately, but back to back.
“The only thing better than a classic, rare collector car is a near identical one to match it,” said Craig Jackson, chief executive officer of the Scottsdale-based Barrett-Jackson Auction Co.
“With 12 pairs scheduled to cross the block, we’re adding a new dimension to the auction for hardcore collectors. The chance to nab two timeless classics with one swipe will be impossible to pass up,” Jackson said.
Known as “The World’s Greatest Collector Car Event,” the auction will feature more than 1,200 of the world’s finest collector automobiles. More than 225,000 visitors are expected, and the auction will be featured on 40 hours of live coverage on the cable Speed channel.
