(Photos by Cole Reynolds) It’s been a few days since we shared some of our Barrett-Jackson photos from Scottsdale, but we’ve still got a few more galleries ready and waiting for you to check out. With nearly 1700 cars on site, there is something for everyone which seems to be the point since they are selling the hell out of everything. We had a great time at the auction, and we have to say we were as surprised by some of the low prices as we were the highs. In truth, there were some cars we could have bought at the auction, driven them to SoCal, and sold them within days for a few grand profit. Now if they would only let us sign up to buy stuff. HA!!! That will never happen.

If you haven’t been to Barrett-Jackson in Scottsdale during Auction Week you are missing out on one hell of a cool spectacle. And when I say spectacle, I mean it. This is part car show, part carnival, part auction, and all bitchin. Plus there is a Ridetech 48-Hour Camaro build going on that we’re thrilled to be helping out on. We’ve never been to any car event like Barrett-Jackson before. They say more than 300,000 people will roll through the gates during the week and there are more than 1700 cars, trucks, and more on site ready to go across the block. Plus there are a TON of vendors here with all kinds of cool stuff. Everything from built cars, boats, neon, automobilia of all kinds, and great food and drinks too.

And this all just scratches the surface. The truth is there is no real way to describe Barrett-Jackson in Scottsdale without finishing a sentence saying “you just have to see it.”
