They actually have made a reality show about runing the auction. It's also on Speed Channel and is called
Barrett-Jackson: Life on the Block.
I've seen it and it's pretty interesting.
One thing they went into is the bidding war on that 54 Olds F-88 concept that ultimately sold for $3,000,000.
Apparently one guy was upest about another bidder jumping in front of him and not displaying proper bidder ettiquette.
He knew the guy wanted the car, so he figured he'd keep bidding to jack the price up and "make him pay". Seems like a couple of rich guys behaving like babies, if you ask me.
