What to Look For in a Classic Car Auction
You will find a wide range of car of all ages and all conditions. They are also a great place to find rare cars of all types. You will find that some classic cars will be sold for very high prices and often not sell at all. Most cars won't sell on their first attempt because of the high prices and the classic car market is not all that large. This just makes thing easier for people that want a particular car and are prepared to spend the right amount of money.
To find good classic car auctions you will need to look around, as they are not that many around. A good place to find where the best classic car auctions are is to look in the most popular classic car magazines and try attending any classic car functions that you can find. The classic car world is fairly tight knit and you will need to be in the know to get on too the good deals. That doesn't mean that you will need to be an expert but you will need to know what you are looking for and be prepared for the high prices and lack of selection.
If you are prepared to do a lot of hunting around and a lot of leg work you can find some very rare cars in very good conditions for a very good price. Not all classic cars are expensive you can find car that are old but not all that rare so the price won't be so high. Just because the car is not are that does not mean it not worth buying. If you are looking for a classic car then most likely you will know exactly what you want but trying to find it will be the hard part. It's also a good idea to attend a few too get a feel for what you be up against and find out how it all works.
When you do find the perfect car at the perfect price be prepared for a bidding war. The fact that you like and want the car means that there will be most likely a lot of other people that are thinking the same time. Always remember to watch what you are buying, as there are a lot of replicas out there and all may not be what it seems. I wish you the best of luck in you classic car buy adventures and hope you find what you are looking for.

Can you help me with this classic math puzzle?
I remember getting this question as extra credit in my high school algebra class, but I don't remember the answer. I just heard it again on a Car Talk podcast.
A father runs a used car lot with his three sons. When the father dies, they have 17 cars on the lot. The will states that the eldest son will get 1/2 the cars, the middle son will get 1/3 of the cars, and the youngest son will get 1/9 the cars. How many cars does each son get?
now I'm assuming that the sons wish to avoid chopping up cars to satisfy the will as those partial cars would be worth next to nothing compared to their value whole. So the trick to this one is to satisfy the will according the the ratios of not each son to the total, but between each son
now say the eldest son gets x cars, the middle gets y cars, and the youngest get z cars. Then we want x+y+z=17 we also want 2x=17=3y=9z so y=3z and that gives us
x+3z+z=17
x+4z=17 now multiply by 2 to get
2x+8z=34 and from above we have 2x=3y=9z thus we have
9z+8z=34
17z=34
z=2
y=3*2=6
2*x=3*y=3*6=18
x=9
thus the eldest gets 9 cars, the middle gets 6 cars, and the youngest gets 2 cars
there is another trickier solution that leads to the same values but I prefer the method above as it shows more of the underlying math and why it works. The trikier method is to simply "borrow" a car from somewhere to increase the total to 18. thus the oldest gets 18/2=9 cars the middle gets 18/3=6 cars and the youngest gets 18/9=2 cars and since 9+6+2=17 the "borrowed" car can be returned.
