Collector Car Auction

We spent yesterday with Marv & Rose who came from Red Deer to attend the Barrett-Jackson Collector Car Auction at the Westworld complex in Scottsdale. On Thursday evening a major rain/wind storm hit in that area and a show tent blew down on top of a number of cars doing considerable damage. We learned other car auctions were being held in the area and Barrett-Jackson was not affected.
We met Kristen from JFKustoms in Osoyoos, BC who built one of the feature custom cars in the sale. The car is called R'evolution and sold for $170,000 USD. While Chrysler never built a station wagon in 1956, JFKustoms built R'evolution as their concept of what the '56 Chrysler station wagon would've looked like. As we watched the cars being sold we followed along in the program. There were 12 vehicles per page and we calculated one page to have grossed over $2M!!! Pretty crazy! Heard today that an older model Ferrari sold for over $3M at Gooding Auctions next door to Barrett-Jackson. Check out www.jfkustoms.com for more information on R'evolution.
We awoke to clear skies this morning and no more rain today. However, it is cold and there'll probably be frost overnight. We've covered a couple of 'mums in the yard!
By the way, the guy with all the long black hair standing second from right on the stage is Alice Cooper who was selling a couple of cars from his collection. One of them was called "Billion Dollar Babies" and it had an Alberta Vanity "BLNDLRS" valid licence plate on it. Does he have an Alberta residence?!
