BEHIND THE SHADES ALL OF US AT BARRETT-JACKSON, AS A TEAM – and
me in particular, working with the consignments and
building the docket – couldn’t be more excited about
the prospect of live events again. We had so many
hurdles to overcome initially, just contemplating
whether we were going to postpone or not hold our
events, through no fault of anyone, just by virtue of this
virus and all the unknowns it caused.
But the Barrett-Jackson family put our heads together
and came up with the idea that if we were going to put
on a live event and be as effective as we could be, where
better to do that than our home town? With home field
advantage, we can stage this in a place we’re all familiar
with – and we’re very, very conscious of all the things
we’re going to need to do to make this successful.

it will not, in any way, be less exciting or less fruitful for
all our consignors and bidders.
