Re: Ebay auction for Challenger SRT8 # 2 now underway

As I believe someone else stated, another new Challenger will be auctioned off at this year's Barrett-Jackson event. However, it is my understanding the proceeds from that sale will go to charity. Do we know for sure that is not the case with the e-Bay auction as well?

Also, since when did e-Bay purchase Barrett-Jackson? I live in Arizona, and this is the first I've heard of it. I can't see Craig Jackson selling his auction house to anyone! This must be a mistake.

As far as "cheap publicity," hey -- I'll take it. Chrysler needs to start making some noise, and this is a good way to do it. I think the new ad campaign (stressing Chrysler's heritage of automotive industry "firsts" is a smart move, too.
