Default Salt Lake Federal Auction - Jan 9 & 21

SALT LAKE CITY -- Next month, a most unusual automobile auction will take place. If you're looking for something classic or exotic, you'll have a chance to bid on it.

It's a huge collection of vehicles owned by an alleged white-collar criminal who will soon go to trial in Utah.

Right now, the vehicles are stored in an old, narrow, brick warehouse in Salt Lake. It's a stunning sight at first: side by side, bumper to bumper, from one end of the building to the other; millions of dollars worth of vehicles.

Over the past year, the cars, trucks and bikes were confiscated by the U.S. Marshals Service.

....

What makes this collection even more interesting is that all of the vehicles -- close to 300 in all -- is their connection to Mowen. He's facing charges in an alleged Ponzi scheme where hundreds of investors lost $18 million.
