Thread: Auburn Classic Auto Auction...?

I've never been to it, but I wonder if any fellow members will be attending this year's Auburn Fall eveny. It coincides with Auburn Cord Duesenberg Festival. I've personally never been to either, though I've lived less than an hour away for 7yrs now.

Official information:
September 2-6th.
Auctions America - Auburn Fall

The thought struck me when I noticed a catalog/advertisement for it in the break room last night. Train of thought as follows: "Oh yea, that classic car auction I'm only vaguely aware of because I'm not a gear-head... I wouldn't mind taking a day to ogle the old gals, though... old... hmmm... WAIT! Old cars, collectors: they'd likely collect other old stuff. LIKE STRAIGHT RAZORS! Yippie. And this auction is so huge, they'd be complete dunderheads to not have vendors and the likes. People will be there selling old stuff besides cars, too. Maybe I'll check this thing out this year..."

That was maybe a three second flash of thought in my head.

Anywho, now that I've rambled on long enough... anyone planning on going to this? Anybody nearby fancy a visit?

I have yet to meet another "traditional wet shaver" in person. Needless to say, this would be a nice opportunity for me to soak up some knowledge.

looks interesting. i was just in Auburn 3 weeks ago in fact, doing some antiquing in the Leo, Grabill area. Wish i could go, but probably won't be able to. let us know how it turns out.

Here is a link to a search of the SRP member database for people having "Indiana" as a location in their profile........ about 80 guys.
