Re: Who is going to B-J Auction?
 

I am amazed at those I know with cars for sale,making the trek to Scottsdale in January.
All seem to have dollar signs in thier eyes,& rightly so,I guess.
It's going to resemble the Woodstock of Car Auctions!

Re: Who is going to B-J Auction?
 

There are other hotels south from the auction right off the 101. They are not that much further from the hotels off N.scottsdale road and maybe less expensive. Also I suggest spending the 300.00 bucks and getting a bidders' pass. Not only do you have the option of bidding, but you get close-up parking access and admission for yourself and a guest. Admission this year is 50.00 a day per person so this seems to make sense. BTW, last Pavillions' car show I attended had original '71 hemi cuda coupe and convertible and '69 COPO Chevelle (Micky Hale restored) and perfect blue LS6 etc. so it's worth checking out. The only thing that sucks about it is the obnoxious music.

Re: Who is going to B-J Auction?
 

Like COPO, I have wanted to go for several years. I will be there Thursday-Sunday and plan to get my money's worth. You can sleep when you are dead! Probably can't afford anything there but just look forward to the experiance. Tell me more about were and when on the McDonald's thing. I suspect that just like spectacles everywhere there is as much going on in the surrounding area as at the show. Anyone else have other suggestions on activities us newbies might not know about? Maybe a planned get together(lunch,dinner,beer) is a good idea,I am certainly game.

Bill, Scottsdale is awesome. Lots of great golf, dining and shopping. Don and Charlies restaurant is a must ( I'm serious) - 7501 E. Camelback Rd. 480-990-0900. Old town Scottsdale is fun, nice Mall at Fashion Square. Anyway if you need info, you can PM me, I've lived in AZ. for years and know Scottsdale pretty well. Good Luck, BJ is an exciting time in Scottsdale.

Bill,

The McDonalds car show Saturday night is in the Pavillions Shopping Center at Indian Bend Rd. & the Pima freeway (Loop 101). It is about 5 miles straight south of the auction site. Best time to be there is about 5 to 9 pm.

Re: Who is going to B-J Auction?
 

I'll be there as well,in fact, I'll be at all the auctions that month in Az. I am going to take my large fake boobs off so you guys will know it is me. I'll be the only one there without them, come by and say hi!
