Canada’s best-known car restorer is once again parting with some of his beloved collection.

Earlier this month, reality TV star Mike Hall announced that he and co-star Avery Shoaf will be holding no-reserve auctions Oct. 1-2, stating he has to sell because he lost his storage yard.

The auctions will be hosted by Alberta-based EG Auctions, which also hosted Hall’s wildly popular auction last fall. More than 550 vehicles were up for sale, with Hall — the lead character in Rust Valley Restorers — saying he wound up selling all but 50 or so of his prized collection.

According to EG Auctions, that original sale went viral, with cars going to new homes across Canada – all 10 provinces and two territories – plus the U.S., and overseas as well.

In addition, the company said there were long lineups at Hall’s yard in Tappen, B.C., on the day of the auction.

Now, Hall and Shoaf will be emptying parts of their collections next weekend.
