It’s that time of there year where automotive enthusiasts, aficionados, racers, collectors, hobbyists, traders, dealers, brokers, and very other type of fan of automotive history of past and present head to the Monterey Peninsula in California for the most significant event in North America, and quite possibly the world. These events include some spectacular Concours and some of the most exciting auction line ups in the world. I will be in Monterey and visiting all of the auctions and as many Concours events as time will allow. The auction line up is fantastic. RM Sotheby’s, Gooding & Co., Bonhams, Mecum, Russo & Steele will be keeping me busy for a good part of the time.
RM Sotheby’s is at the Portola Hotel and Spa in downtown Monterey is Friday and Saturday. The line up is absolutely incredible. There are several cars that are once in a lifetime opportunities to see, let alone buy. The auction catalog can be viewed at rmsothebys.com
Bonhams Auction is at the Quail Lodge on Friday afternoon. The theme is targeted to the world’s greatest supercars, and looking at the lineup, it’s just that. The cars that are being offered can be seen on their website and can be viewed at www.bonhams.com
Gooding & Co. has their auction on Saturday and Sunday at Pebble Beach. As with every event that Gooding & Co. puts together, the line up of offered cars is fantastic and includes several significant early Ferrari competition cars. The line up can be viewed here at www.goodingco.com
