Although Craig Jackson's "WINK" is not clear in the U-Tube segment it was very clear on my DVR recording when I showed it on my big screen LCD. The guy he winked at was Gary Holub standing right behind him.
There was also disclaimers through out the auction shown on the big screen TV's right next to the stage that said something to the effect of "IT SHOULD BE ASSUMED THAT ALL CARS ARE NOT MATCHING NUMBERS AND MILEAGE IS NOT ACTUAL" or something to that affect. The net net of the whole fiasco is that BJ is in business to make money and is very succesful at it. They are car salesmen and nothing more. They don't care about true quality cars, they just want to sell them. As long as people buy from them it will continue. We can all wring our hands and bitch about it, but it isn't going to change. So take it for what it is "entertainment" and keep supporting the legitimate venues for buying and selling the cars we love. I do, however have to give credit to BJ for their charity efforts. That does mean a lot.

I agree with Don also. I've said for years B-J is just an entertaining car show. I talked with another member here last week and we both agree; at the present time if you're looking for an auction that more accurately reflects the 'real life' pricing on "Quality" collector cars, look to Mecum.
Let's hope they can hold on to their integrity. |

B-J was very entertaining for me. i love looking for people that i know better than looking at the cars going across the block. that and doing the fantasy bidding with the boys was just as fun. !!!! so i will watch again next year(if i dont go) and as far as the ZL-1

I was waiting for the old organ grinder to appear when the ZL-1 was sold.
