For example, Mecum Auctions is known for selling muscle cars, but they also have several all-Corvette auc- tions. The only way to learn these differences is to ex- perience auctions firsthand or talk with collectors who have. It may be more cost effective to send a pre-World War II classic car to a sale 2,000 miles from your home to an auction known for cars similar to yours. Although a local auction may seem like a good idea, if the sale specializes in cars very different than yours – like street rods and muscle cars – it will attract an audience that.
