RUSSO AND STEELE SCOTTSDALE 2010 Scottsdale update, Friday, January 22 11:30 a.m.
The City of Scottdsale Fire Marshall will not declare the auction site safe today due to continued storm activity in the area. This means no access for car owners. The earliest time the consignors might be able to inspect their cars is tomorrow morning, according to the Fire Marshall. We will be posting updated information as it becomes available.

Russo and Steele Site

Two tents at the site blew down damaging a couple of hundred cars. What a nightmare.

I know on barrett jackson last night they said one of the the Russo tents blew onto the 101 interstate …..

You know how dealers around here have hail damage car sales…. maybe they will have tent damaged sale…..

I wonder if Benchmark’s Tucker got damaged?

I highly doubt that car has even been out of the trailer yet… it’s that rare! :whistle:

That video is scary though, that’s any collectors nightmare… Let’s hope everyone had good insurance. I wish this auction was televised also, looks like some great cars there!

Russo and Steele’s auction will probably take place Sunday and Monday.
