The Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale Auction 2014 will be held January 12-19 at the all-new WestWorld facility in Scottsdale, Arizona. More than 1,000 classics, exotics, muscle cars, hot rods, resto-mods and more will cross the auction block at no reserve during the 43rd annual automotive lifestyle event.<\/p>\n

The 2014 auction marks the return of the company\u2019s 5000 Series, which includes the Salon Collection<\/a> and features approximately 85 automobiles. On Saturday, January 18th, the Salon Collection will be offered live between 1-3 p.m. MST on FOX. This segment will be called \u201cA tribute to Americana.\u201d The Salon Collection will resume from 5-7 p.m. MST and will be shown on the National Geographic Channel.<\/p>\n

One of the highlight offerings is Lot #5022, the 1969 Chevrolet Corvette #57 Rebel Convertible that was one of only four factory lightweight L88 prototypes built. The only example ordered with a dual disc clutch, the Rebel was the first IMSA over 2-Liter champion in 1971, in addition to winning its class at the 1972 Daytona 24 Hours and Sebring 12 Hours. Offered from the Edward Foss Collection, the famed race car is well-documented and includes owner history, original dealer invoice, original log book and more. Restored to its winning 1972 Sebring trim, the NCRS American Heritage Award-winning #57 Rebel Corvette has been displayed at the National Corvette Museum, Bloomington Gold Special Collection and Corvettes at Carlisle.<\/p>\n
