SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. Jan. 10, 2020 – Barrett-Jackson, The World's Greatest Collector Car Auctions, will auction 40 amazing vehicles at No Reserve from esteemed North Texas collector Sam Pack during the 49th Annual Scottsdale Auction, January 11-19, 2020. Classic Jaguars, hand-built Kirkham Cobras, Resto-Mods and customs will headline this incredible assortment of vehicles, all being sold for No Reserve.

'Sam Pack has been part of the Barrett-Jackson scene for many years, so we are pleased with the opportunity to help him rotate some of his remarkable collection,' said Craig Jackson, chairman and CEO of Barrett-Jackson. 'The vehicles offered by Sam are an excellent representation of the diversity and quality that bidders have come to expect from Barrett-Jackson. Sam's collection, without a doubt, is a true celebration of our shared passion for automobiles.'

A trifecta of Pack's Jaguars is poised to pounce on the auction block. Lot #1390.1 is an unrestored, matching-numbers 1964 Jaguar XKE Series I OTS that comes with the Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust Certificate. With less than 30,000 miles, this Opalescent Silver-Gray Jaguar is powered by its original 3.8-liter DOHC inline-6 engine and a 4-speed manual transmission. The 1952 Jaguar XK120 Fixed-Head Coupe (Lot #1077.1) is powered by a 160-horsepower DOHC 3.4-liter inline-6 engine with double SU carburetors mated to a 4-speed manual gearbox. Lot #1077 is a 1954 Jaguar XK120 Drophead Coupe powered by a 3.4-liter DOHC inline-6 engine coupled to a 4-speed manual transmission. This stunning red Jaguar is one of 1,472 left-hand-drive examples, and one of 466 produced with the Special Equipment Package.

A trio of stunning, hand-built Kirkham Cobras crafted from brilliantly polished aluminum, copper and bronze (Lot #1389, 1388, and 1388.1) and a Kirkham Daytona Coupe (Lot #1389.1) stamped from polished aluminum will also be part of the incredible group. In addition, Pack will sell a car handpicked by Carroll Shelby from his personal collection, Lot #1389.2, a 1965 Shelby Cobra CSX 7000 finished in polished aluminum. This Continuation Cobra, designated as CSX7049, was built to replicate the legendary original and is powered by a 427ci V8 engine with a 5-speed manual transmission.

Handcrafted by The Roadster Shop, a 1932 Ford Roadster (Lot #1078) in the collection took the name 'Passion.' It features a fuel-injected ZZ4 350ci crate engine sending power through a TREMEC 5-speed manual and onto a Ford 9-inch rear end.

'Sam Pack has built an incredible collection featuring multiple crown jewels that are coveted among collectors,' said Steve Davis, president of Barrett-Jackson. 'His 1989 Porsche 911 speedster (Lot #1390), for example, is one of only 823 delivered to this country and has just over 1,300 original miles. The depth and breadth of this collection is truly remarkable, and we're proud to have been trusted with its sale during our Scottsdale Auction.'
