BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. (PRWEB) June 11, 2003 -- RM Auctions returns to Meadow Brook Hall with its eighth annual auction event held in the Shotwell-Gustafson Pavilion on the grounds of Oakland University in Rochester, Michigan - Saturday, August 2, 2003.

A significant collection of vintage automobiles has been assembled for this years sale, held in conjunction with the prestigious Meadow Brook Concours dElegance. In addition to the centennial anniversaries of Ford and Buick, the Concours event will also be celebrating its own 25th anniversary with a rare 25-car display of vintage Duesenbergs.

"Meadow Brook Hall provides the perfect historical backdrop for the sale of these golden era automobiles," says Rob Myers of RM Auctions, Inc. "The cars we will feature are the epitome of the quality and craftsmanship that international car collectors expect."

For eight years the Meadow Brook sale has continued to attract some of the worlds most discriminating collectors who come to enjoy the weekends ambiance of rare, world-class automobiles on display and up for auction.

Some of the featured automobiles for this sale include:

1931 Rolls-Royce Phantom II Henley Roadster - Considered the prettiest coachwork ever installed on the Rolls-Royce chassis, this outstanding example is one of just five correct examples remaining (nine were built). Formerly the property of noted Florida collector Bill Lassiter. Chassis #269 AJS.

1931 Marmon Sixteen Sport Coupe - Widely regarded as one of the finest and most powerful cars of the Classic era, the Marmon Sixteen was a highly advanced engineering design. The car's coachwork was designed by LeBaron, and even today is regarded as a landmark example of good automotive design. One of a handful of examples remaining.

1962 Bentley S2 Saloon - Designed as the sporting counterpart to Roll-Royce, Bentleys were frighteningly expensive, but offered unparalleled refinement, performance, and beauty. The low mileage original example offered here among the most desirable - a left drive, factory air-conditioned car with a well documented owner history.

A limited number of consignments for the 2003 Meadow Brook Hall auction are still being accepted. To consign a collector car or collection for this special event, please contact RM Auctions, Inc. at: (800) 211-4371
