Car auction brings out enthusiasts of four-wheeled artwork

“A lot of these cars are rolling art. They aren't mass-produced cars. They are pieces of history and that's what makes them rare and desirable”

Forget circus animals and carnival rides; this weekend the South Florida Fairgrounds is playing host to four-wheeled fantasies.

Beginning today, 600 classic cars will be up for auction through Sunday at the Barrett-Jackson Collector Car Event. Car lovers can buy every kind of car, including a sleek white 1958 Chevrolet Corvette convertible and a tough, canary yellow 1970 Ford Torino Cobra.

The unique autos, which include classic European roadsters and sports cars, hot rods and rare muscle cars, will be spread across 200,000 square feet of the grounds. The event is an eye-candy spectacular for car enthusiasts and those who want a look at vehicles not seen zooming along anymore. Read more
