It's Auction Time!(Column)
Byline: Dutch Mandel
Dig into your holiday cash stash, and peel off some big bills.
It's time for the annual AutoWeek/CARA Holiday Auction of Exceptional and Near Unobtainable Car Goodies. Proceeds of the auction, running from now through Nov. 30 at noon Eastern, will benefit a number of worthy organizations, including Buckle Up Baby. Bidding is online, at autoweek.com/cara. You can see what's going on in real time. When time is up, it's over.
You will be notified by e-mail if you win. You'll have seven days to get a certified check or money order to us (no personal checks). This gives us time to get you the goods before the holiday. Ladies and gentlemen, start your bids!
