Barret Jackson and auctions like them are not the best place to sell without a large haircut. The bidders there who are not buying the promoted, high dollar stuff are generally bottom feeders looking for a steal. The presentation at an auction like BJ on a car like an SPF is poor at best. They will talk up a Camaro Z26 clone or "tribute" car built from a six cylinder but dis on the SPF as a "kit".

One of those types of auctions would be my last resort if I wanted to sell. You sell under market, pay the fees and then wait for your money. Yeah, sounds like a good deal to me!
