If you’ve been waiting for the right moment to jump into the collector car world, The Dallas Classic is shaping up to be the event to do it. Taking place at Dallas Market Hall on November 21 at 12 PM CT and November 22 at 10 AM CT, this two-day sale promises a lineup that blends nostalgia, originality, and ready-to-drive fun—all starting at just five bucks per bid.
One standout to watch is the 1983 Jeep CJ-8 Scrambler (VIN: 1JCCM88E5DT044367), an increasingly hard-to-find model with a loyal following. Sporting a 4.2-liter straight-six, manual transmission, A/C, power steering, and a factory-style interior, this Scrambler from the JMR Cars Collection looks dialed-in and trail-ready. Clean under the hood, sharp inside, and equipped with a winch, it’s the kind of CJ-8 that rarely surfaces in this condition.
For those drawn to post-war charm, the 1949 Willys Jeepster (VIN: S22559) brings a completely different flavor—part cruiser, part Americana time capsule. With its open-air appeal and undeniable character, the Jeepster offers a refreshing alternative to the typical muscle car spotlight and could easily become a conversation-starter in any collection.
Prefer your classics with V8 grunt and ’80s swagger? The 1987 Ford Bronco (VIN: 1FMDU15N9HLA67914) checks the box with a 5.0-liter V8 and automatic transmission. Third-generation Broncos are gaining momentum with collectors as interest surges for retro full-size SUVs, making this one worth watching as bidding heats up.
All three are slated for Day 2 in Ring 2 (Classic & Collector Vehicles), each beginning with a $5 opening bid and subject to a 12.5% buyer’s premium.
From rugged off-roaders to charm-filled cruisers, The Dallas Classic is ready to deliver excitement at every turn. Which one would you take home if the gavel fell your way?
