Here's the deal guys...we had a great turnout last year (see website for pictures and details of the 2006 event), but we are really working hard to make this year even bigger and better.
Once again it will be held at the Charleston Civic Center in Charleston, WV on Saturday February 24th (doors open at 10:00AM, auction starts at 11:00AM).[/color][/b]
We will once again be in the North Grand Hall, but we have also rented out an additional 6,000 sq ft hall behind the North Hall. All in climate controlled comfort.
The added space is needed due to the great response we've received from potential trade show vendors. Last year we had 24 vendors filling over 30 booths, but we've already received verbal comitments from twice that many this year. We will be publishing a vendor list early in February once more contracts are received.
As for the auction portion, that also looks to be bigger than last year. Last year we had over 200 brand new items that sold at the auction at no reserve. We also had several high-quality used parts that sold through the auction totaling 500+ lots.
Some examples were... a complete Ellis open-wheel mod car (minus engine) sold for only $1,000! Also, 25 brand new tires sold for less than $50 and several brand new late model nosepieces sold for as low as $30.

I hope to see everyone there on the 24th.
Sincerely, Keith Bills
