Excitement is building \u2026 the Great Texas Mopar\u00ae<\/sub> Hoard Auction Event is drawing near. Mark your calendar for Wednesday and Thursday, October 13 and 14, 2021. Those are the dates when Spanky Assiter and his Freedom Car Auctions team will conduct an all-online, no-reserve auction of the late John Haynie\u2019s massive collection of mostly Mopar cars and parts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Remember, this is an online-only event so make sure your computer is warmed up and your internet connection is strong. The reason for the online-only nature \u2013 as opposed to an on-site auction with the usual gathered crowd of bidders \u2013 is the fact the massive estate is located outdoors, on a ranch in the remote Texas prairie, too far off the beaten path to expect most folks to even find it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

More specifically, the estate sits on several acres with a small house surrounded by a handful of metal sheds and garages. It\u2019s like \u201cThe Little Mopar House on the Prairie\u201d. The parts are stored indoors but most of the 250-plus vehicles are outside under the bright Texas sun. Staging an outdoor auction in Texas is asking for discomfort due to heat, sunburn, wind and possible rain. And there\u2019s the rattlesnake factor. Our slithering, venomous friends populate the Texas prairie like fish do the sea, so special care must be taken when walking among the 250-plus vehicles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
