SPRING CARLISLE COLLECTOR CAR AUCTION JUST SIX WEEKS AWAY

CARLISLE, Pa. – After a successful inaugural auction season that saw more than 500 cars cross the block in 2006, Carlisle Events is back with an exciting assortment of auction cars in 2007. Last year’s auction vehicles had a combined total value of more than $16 million, and buyers and sellers came from as far away as the West Coast and Florida to join the two gatherings.

Beginning with the Spring Auction, April 20-21, and culminating with the Fall Auction, October 5-6, Carlisle Events is set to provide action, excitement and hundreds of special cars up for bid. With several hundred cars already in the pipeline and a few celebrity cars in the mix, the Spring Auction promises to be the most exciting one yet.

Both auctions will take place at the Carlisle Expo Center, just one block from the Carlisle Fairgrounds, with the Spring Auction accompanying the 31st Annual Spring Carlisle Collector Car Swap Meet and Corral, and the Fall Auction held in conjunction with Fall Carlisle.

Carlisle Senior Manager Bill Miller III is enthusiastic about the upcoming Spring Carlisle Collector Car Auction, “Coming off a successful first year of auctions in ’06, we’re really excited about the 2007 events. We learned a lot in our first year that we plan to put into action at this year’s auctions. We already have a number of significant cars consigned, and have many interested consignors that we are talking with. If you are a potential consignor or bidder, contact us now as lots are filling quickly. Carlisle Collector Car Auctions’ tagline is Real Cars, Real People. Unlike some of the higher-profile auctions seen on TV, we try to cater to the audiences that regularly attend Carlisle’s Spring and Fall events. It’s great entertainment, a chance to see some fine, classic automobiles from all eras and genres and an opportunity for the average enthusiast to buy or sell a car. If you haven’t experienced one of our auctions, give us a try; you won’t be disappointed. Don’t miss the excitement at our Spring Auction.”
