The Florida event is also known
to attract celebrities. One of my
favorite memories was when actor
William Shatner (center right)
sold some of his cars at our Palm
Beach Auction in 2016 after many
of his 2.5 million Twitter followers
recommended Barrett-Jackson.
A good friend of the auction,
John Staluppi, has made a lasting
impression on our Florida event
by selling his remarkable Cars
of Dreams Collection not once,
but twice. The first time we sold
it in 2018, the collection was so
large we expanded the Palm Beach
Auction to four days.
Twenty years later, Palm Beach
feels like a second home. My wife
Carolyn and I really enjoy Florida,
the community atmosphere and
the beauty the state has to offer.
Every time the Palm Beach Auction
rolls around it reminds me of my
brother Brian and my mom. I feel
a sense of pride knowing I was able
to make this expansion happen
and fulfill one of Brian’s wishes.
I look forward to another
successful Palm Beach Auction,
along with welcoming all our
sponsors, friends of the auction
and another amazing selection of
collector vehicles.
Cheers to 20 years in Florida!
