> Complete details:
>
> All Corvair enthusiasts are welcome and invited! Any and all Corvair
> items will be sold to the highest bidders. You can set a minimum
> acceptable bid for your parts, or no minimum bid at all! NJACE will
> collect a 10% commission on the sale of parts. You may also donate
> items for the full benefit of the club. All you need to bring is
> parts and/or cash, and a folding chair on which to sit.
>
> If you're selling, the best way to go is to organize your parts at
> home, so that you can quickly fill out the Lot Cards that will be
> used at the auction. On the Lot Cards you will identify yourself,
> the parts, and any minimum acceptable bid you wish to establish.
>
> On the morning of the auction there will be time to set up your parts
> and tag them if you have not yet done so. By organizing in advance
> at home, setup will be easier. If you don't want to be bothered
> tagging your parts and you just want to donate them to the club,
> bring 'em and we'll handle everything for you. (Parts donations have
> typically been one of our club's largest fund-raisers each year.)
>
> What kind of parts sell well? Obviously, clean parts in good
> condition, parts that are less common, and new-old-stock
> parts. Greasy, broken junk has little or no value, and the auction
> will prove this to you if you don't believe it. Leave the bent,
> rusty, broken stuff at home.
>
> We encourage the selling of parts in "lots." For example, sell an
> instrument cluster and a glovebox door together, not as separate
> items. And we discourage the selling of too many of the same
> thing. For example, if you have six pairs of cylinder heads to sell,
> consider offering only one pair at the auction.
>
> Once setup is complete, the auctioneers will start picking parts and
> auctioning them off. Whatever is set for an item's minimum bid is
> will be the least bid accepted (and bids will be taken in even dollar
> amounts as to make bookkeeping easier).
>
> If you're buying, you will have a Bidder Number which will be used to
> record your purchase whenever you're the successful bidder. You'll
> receive your purchases on the spot, but you'll need to pay for them
> (by cash or check, cash preferred) before leaving. For this reason
> we ask that you be prepared to stay for the full auction, so that the
> bookkeepers can record all the sales and tally the results without
> interruption.
>
> There will be a lunch break, and club will provide pizza and soda at
> no charge. (Who said that there's no such thing as a free
> lunch?) If you don't have any parts to sell come anyway -- there are
> always great bargains to be had and there are always plenty of laughs.
>
> The auction is a great way to see a lot of unusual parts and enjoy
> the competitive bidding. If you're looking for something in
> particular chances are good that you'll find it there.
>
> The best part about the auction is a chance to get together with a
> great bunch of people. The auction is fast paced and a lot of
> fun. Directions appear below. So come out on Saturday, February 7th.
>
> Directions to Ashley's Auto Body: From the east, west, and
