In 2024 the Mecum Glendale auction saw overall sales totals eclipse $54 million as 942 classic and collector vehicles sold throughout the event, headlined by the $1.8-million sale of a 1967 Chevrolet Corvette L88 Coupe. The event drew consignors from 38 different states and bidders from all 50 states, as well as from other countries.

Several private collections will be offered this week, including a rare collection of vintage Sterling trucks dubbed the Timber Crest Farms Collection. This collection showcases more than 100 years of heavy hauler history, dating back to 1917 with a Sterling 2.5 Ton Truck. The assemblage also features an outlier 1956 Peterbilt 351 Truck.
