Summary

Take our survey for Holley...so we can find great giveaways for you! http://bit.ly/TMCP_Podcast_Survey

This weeks interview is with long time listener Derek Thomas, owner and operator of Rail & Road Auctions. Derek has been in the auction business for many years selling model trains and actual train related items, sometimes at world record sales levels. He also has a passion for the cars he grew up with in the 80's and 90's and believes the time is right for these vehicles to start gaining value.

To capture the soon to be booming 80's market, Derek decided to leverage his experience and bring a better opportunity to auction these vehicles. With his experience in the business Derek is able to utilize the same platform as the big players and offer those services to a lower dollar market. Since he is a MuscleCar Place fan, he decided it would be great to announce the service to our listeners with a discount of 25% off listing fee for your first vehicle listed and a 50% discount on your second in that auction!

If you would like to learn more about Rail & Road Auctions, and maybe take advantage of The Muscle Car Place exclusive discount, you can find the website at RaRauctions.com.
