Default Spring Mecum Auction LEAVING Illinois

I talked to a friend who works inhouse there,and he confirmed it as well.
..........................READ HERE
in a nut shell:
The top three reasons the move has been initiated are:
1. Facility- Weatherproof all paved parking and all cars under roof. Mecum says "Even though we had over seven acres of tents in the past the weather brought undesirable conditions. Our number one customer concern is the parking of their car in a proper environment."
2. Market Proximity: Indianapolis is located in close proximity to many major metropolitan areas including: Cleveland, Cincinnati, Columbus, Chicago, Champaign, Bloomington, Dayton, Detroit, Fort Wayne, Indianapolis, Lexington, Louisville, Peoria, Springfield, and St. Louis.
3. Upcoming TV Series: Eight episodes over seven weeks will be shot live onsite. Six of the episodes will be smaller 100 car auctions to build up to the 1,000 car Grand Finale episode (Dana Mecum's Spring Classic).


I'm very sorry to hear this,but grateful they completed the I-355 southern extension to I-80,as this is under 2 hours away from me now.
