LAS VEGAS – Sept. 2, 2009 – The Barrett-Jackson Auction Company is inviting all Las Vegas-area automotive enthusiasts to bring their vehicles to Gaudin Ford on Oct. 3, 2009, from 10 a.m.-2 p.m. for the 2nd Annual Barrett-Jackson Las Vegas Cruise-In. Entry into the car show is free and all makes and models are welcome. Barrett-Jackson president, Steve Davis, and vice president of consignment, Gary Bennett, will be on hand to meet enthusiasts, judge entries and select three “Barrett-Jackson Choice Awards.”
The first 100 entries will receive two free tickets to the 2nd Annual Barrett-Jackson Collector Car Auction in Las Vegas at Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino Oct. 8-10, 2009. Hot dogs, hamburgers and additional refreshments will be on sale to benefit Keep Memory Alive, the support organization for the Cleveland Clinic Lou Ruvo Center for Brain Health whose mission is to provide enhanced treatment and ultimately cures for patients and their families suffering from neurocognitive disorders. A “split-the-pot” raffle will also be held to support the charity.
“The Barrett-Jackson Cruise-In is the perfect way to kickoff our 2nd annual auction in Las Vegas,” said Davis. “Last year, the Las Vegas car collector community really showed their passion for the hobby with an amazing turnout. I look forward to meeting and sharing stories with even more local enthusiasts this year as we raise money for Keep Memory Alive.”
The 2007 Prudhomme Edition Shelby Super Snake concept car is scheduled to be on site during the event. The limited edition Mustang will be sold during the Barrett-Jackson auction on Oct. 10. Gaudin Ford is located at 2121 E. Sahara Avenue in Las Vegas. For more information on the car show, please contact Laurel Trimbath at (702) 731-2121 or laurel@gaudinford.com.
