Big Al's List January 2012 Newsletter

Hey Group, I need your help. In my Car Corral, Classifieds and Wanted lists are many Vehicles and Items that are sold or found and I have no way of knowing the status unless You tell me. What I am asking each of you to do, is if you have ever posted an item on my website and have sold it or no longer want it, please check and let me know so that I can remove it! All postings have a CC00xxxx (Car Corral) CL00xxxx (Classifieds) or a W00xxxx (Wanted) number with it. Please sent me an Email with that Number and name of item and I will remove it. Please help me clean up my postings.

Warning!
Just a note to remind you of all the scamming and stealing going on. If someone contacts you to buy your Vehicle or Item from a posting on Big Al's List and it sounds to good to be true, its NOT true. You can usually tell by the incorrect use of the English language and/or the offer to send you extra money to cover the shipping. If you have any doubt about it being a good deal, do not even reply to their offer. If you wish to continue dealing with them, that's up to you but use GREAT CAUTION! Have them meet you at the bank and let them cash their own check and you receive money from the teller. There are a lot of real scum bags out there!

Shows - Cruise-Ins - Swap Meets

While winter taking a firm hold on the Midwest, the outdoor events are going strong in the warm weather states. Big Al's List has added many events in Florida and other warm weather areas of the country.

January is the month for the Winter Auctions in Scottsdale. Most people think of Barrett-Jackson because of their TV Coverage. There are a lot more auctions going on at the same time. Here are links to most of them:

Barrett-Jackson
Bonhams Scottsdale
Gooding and Company

R M Auctions
Russo and Steele
Silver Auctions (outside of town)

If you have never been there, the combination of the auctions makes for one huge event. it's worth the trip for the cars, auctions and vendor displays. If you get there early, a lot of cars will be auctioned for under $10,000. Air fare is still available on Southwest for under $400 round trip from the Midwest.
