01-14-10: The biggest deal of the automotive year is upon us once more. The Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale Collector Car Auction runs January 19-24. We will be on site all week to bring you our trademark coverage of the event. For 2010, we will be looking once again to see how the economic climate is affecting the sale prices, and thus the market prices for our collectible Ford's and Mustangs.
The catalog is pretty large this year and features well over 140 Mustangs and Fords of note. As you will see on the following pages there is a lot more variety this year, more affordable cars, and some top drawer examples still show. Scottsdale, Arizona affords a beautiful venue for the event with mild if not warm weather in January. Ford Motor Company is always on site with lots of fun stuff to see as well. In all cases TheMustangNews will bring it to you right here everyday.

Mustang And Buzz Worthy Fords On The Block:
We catalog the most noteworthy cars to cross the stage for bidding and make 1-10 ratings based on in-person inspections of each car. Our ratings are scored using our many years of experience in and around the Mustang hobby, restoring, buying and selling cars, and a balance our subjective if not sometimes opinionated slant. Enjoy.
