RENO, Nev. – Aug 11, 2015 – Barrett-Jackson, The World’s Greatest Collector Car Auctions®, created a global stage for custom cars during the 3rd Annual Hot August Nights Auction presented by Barrett-Jackson in Reno, Nevada, on Aug. 6-8. For the third year, the auction held the world’s most celebrated custom car competition, the Barrett-Jackson Cup. With over $100,000 in cash and prizes on the line, Randy and Lisa Wilcox took home “Best in Show” with their 1962 Chevrolet Impala Bubbletop.
“Our third year in Reno produced an entirely new level of excitement,” said Craig Jackson, chairman and CEO of Barrett-Jackson. “We began with professional stunt driver Rhys Millen tearing up the streets of downtown Reno to deliver the Barrett-Jackson Cup trophy in a 2015 Dodge Hellcat. The buzz escalated as anticipation mounted around who would be crowned the 2015 Barrett-Jackson Cup champion. The success of this year’s Reno auction demonstrates that Barrett-Jackson remains at the forefront of the American collector car market.”
When Barrett-Jackson teamed up with Hot August Nights in 2013, the Barrett-Jackson Cup was born. With Cup sponsors including Eldorado Resort Casino, Silver Legacy Resort Casino, Harrah’s Hotel & Casino and Circus Circus Hotel & Casino, the Barrett-Jackson Cup boasts the largest prize purse of any American custom car competition and attracts many of the finest cars from across the country.

The vehicles were displayed in the Reno-Sparks Convention Center on Saturday before the top five finalists advanced to a ceremony on the Barrett-Jackson Auction block.
“For the third consecutive year, we’re honored to have the prestigious Barrett-Jackson Cup as part of Hot August Nights,” said Executive Director of Hot August Nights Tony Marini. “It’s in major part due to our partnership with Barrett-Jackson, the downtown properties and other major sponsors that we’ve been able to cultivate such a prestigious Show-n-Shine garnering global attention for having the largest prize purse of any car show. The caliber of the cars placed in the Show-n-Shine is unlike anything you’ve ever seen, and we look forward to continuing this tradition for years to come.”
