SARATOGA SPRINGS, N.Y. (July 31, 2019) — The Saratoga Automobile Museum has announced that it will host a drive-in consignment day at the Museum on Sunday, Aug. 4 to promote the upcoming third annual Saratoga Auto Auction taking place this September.
From 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., prospective consignors will have the opportunity to meet in-person with the Auction team to discuss consigning their vehicle for the auction. Should the prospective consignor and the Auction team decide the vehicle will be part of the auction, the Auction team will work with the consignor to estimate an auction value range for the vehicle, take professional photographs on-site, and execute a consignment contract with the Auction.
“Our drive-in consignment day is a great opportunity for prospective consignors to go through the consignment process in-person with our amazing team,” said Bill Windham, auction director of the Saratoga Auto Auction.
Appointments for the drive-in consignment day are not required, but are encouraged by either e-mailing bill.windham@saratogaautomuseum.org or by calling (518) 401–5180. For those who are unable to attend on Aug. 4, contact Bill Windham to set up an alternative date for an appointment.
The Saratoga Auto Auction, now in its third year, will take place Sept. 20 and Sept. 21 on the stage of the Saratoga Performing Arts Center. In the auction’s second year, nearly 300 vehicles were part of the event. This year, the auction will feature incredible rare and classic vehicles, including a unique 2008 Ford Ravenhawk in which all proceeds will benefit the Double H Ranch.
