This is an exciting year for collectors who like some muscle!
Barrett-Jackson is such an amazing source to watch for collector trends, and this year seems to be the year of the resto-mod, as well as modern American classics. As we’ve seen throughout their previous auctions of 2019, it’s these exact vehicles that are triggering bidding wars. When the famous auction company heads to Mohegan Sun in Connecticut, from June 26-29, 2019, it will include professionally built resto-mods, modern muscle and sports car, 1980s and 1990s performance vehicles, and tons more - many luted at No Reserve.
“There is no doubt that the excitement felt in Scottsdale and Palm Beach will continue in the Northeast,” said Craig Jackson, chairman and CEO of Barrett-Jackson. “This year has been a year of record sales and massive growth in developing segments of the collector car market. We are thrilled to be a catalyst of these market developments while simultaneously delivering on the segments of the market that continue to be as strong as ever.”
