Top Sale at the 2014 Barrett-Jackson Auction
SCOTTSDALE, AZ — One may argue that the real stars of the movie Snake And the Mongoose are the Mopar drag cars and Dodge Ramp trucks that appear so prominently in the film. As the 2014 Barrett-Jackson Auction is underway here in Scottsdale, Arizona this week, a bevy of celebrity cars and famous race cars are on display for the big weekend sale. The vehicles from the 2013 movie Snake And the Mongoose are one of the most popular displays in the new 2014 Barrett-Jackson Auction Salon Collection building. Above you see the 1970 Plymouth Barracuda Funny Car driven by Don “Snake” Prudhomme on display with Tom “Mongoose” McEwen’s Plymouth Duster Funny Car and the 1967 Dodge D-700 ramp trucks they used to haul their race cars across the country during the legendary Mattel sponsored match races which were the subject of the movie.

The 2014 Barrett-Jackson Auction will have a new look this year as nearly everything about the show has changed. They have a new auction stadium compliments of the city of Scottsdale, and the grounds is set up very differently this year. You will also note that FOX Sports has bought out the SPEED Channel so the schedule for watching the Barrett-Jackson on TV is very different this year. See the schedule at the bottom of this page.
Stick with Cars On Line as we will be bringing you photos and stories from this year’s 2014 Barrett-Jackson Auction. On Saturday during “prime time” here we will be carrying on a conversation with our readers about the show on our Cars On Line Facebook page.
As a preview here are some of the “prime time” vehicles you’ll see going through the auction next Saturday. All are from the 5000 Series of special cars to be auctioned off during the late afternoon and early evening broadcast of the auction on the National Geographic Channel. (For a full schedule of TV coverage see the chart at the bottom of this page.)
