A group of more than 450 classic cars \u2013 the largest single collection to be auctioned from Canada \u2013 is set to cross the block at Auctions America’s Auburn Spring, Indiana on May 8-10, 2014.<\/p>\n

The John Scotti Collection predominately comprise American muscle cars from the ’60s and ’70s, but also includes a number of iconic British, Japanese and German models, all of which are offered with no reserve.<\/p>\n

It features a powered window divider and burr walnut trim throughout.<\/p>\n
