-- One week until Auctions America by RM raises gavel at Auburn debut -- Auburn Fall Collector Car Auction Labor-Day-weekend event presents over 1,000 automobiles and counting -- Online, telephone and absentee bidding options available

AUBURN, Ind., Aug. 26 -- Backed by the world's largest collector car auction house, the newly-formed Auctions America by RM has generated tremendous momentum in the final days leading up its inaugural Auburn Fall Collector Car Auction scheduled for September 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 2010. The sale, to be held at the recently acquired and upgraded 235-acre Auburn Auction Park, has an incredible 1,000 motor cars currently scheduled to cross the auction podium. The range of vehicles spans brass era cars, American classics, Detroit muscle, hot rods and late model exotics.

  

"We're looking forward to welcoming collector car enthusiasts and their families to what is poised to be a spectacular and successful first showing in Auburn," said Donnie Gould, Auctions America by RM.

The gates officially open on Wednesday, September 1st for a free public preview followed by the four-day event, coinciding with the celebrated Auburn Cord Dusenberg Festival, from Thursday, September 2nd to Sunday, September 5th.

The auction action kicks off at 10:00 am daily, beginning with memorabilia and followed closely by the quality selection of collector cars and motorcycles. On both Friday and Saturday, the arena will be hopping with two simultaneous auction rings.

In addition, the swap meet, with its 700 reserved spaces, and the car corral, with over 250 vehicles on offer, will be buzzing with activity. A selection of more than 60 food vendors is also available for the thousands of participants expected at the highly anticipated Auctions America debut in Auburn over the Labor Day weekend.
