All Vehicles at Micro Car Museum going up for auction at No Reserve!
« on: August 20, 2012, 09:10:13 am »
RM Auctions is auctioning off all vehicles and collectibles in the Micro Car Museum in Madison, GA on February 15-16, 2013 ... EVERYTHING AT NO RESERVE!

http://microcarmuseum.com/events.html

While it breaks my heart to see such an extensirve collection broken up after so many dedicated years of collecting and restoration, this sure is going to offer some (hopefully, very affordable) deals!

I've already registered!

I hope some rich guy buys the whole thing and keeps it intact.

Nah!  That's too far to drive to work and my driveway is already full, so I can't keep them here.

There was a story on last night's news about the musuem and auction.

FINAL RESULTS:

Well, the Rich Get Richer, and the Poor Get Poorer!

I believe RM Auctions anticipated over $ 4,000,000 in total sales, but at the end of the day, everything in the musuem was sold and rolled out the door ... all for a record-setting $ 9,138,826!

What a shame to see this collection broken up into so many different pieces.  It was, indeed, "The Worlds Biggest Collection of Small Cars!"
