I wish I had seen this one. It was this past weekend. In true "news journalist" fashion, the author is a putz. Here's a couple of his comments:

"In a sea of cars that actually included a couple of sea-worthy vehicles,"

"One thing that all of the auction vehicles seemed to have in common was their condition. Many of those sold on Saturday were running project cars at best, while Sunday’s lineup was full of vehicles that looked to be parts cars. The old phrase “ran when parked” was used frequently in the auction catalogue."

It looks like there were a lot of neat projects and a ton look to be in original paint. Some oddities? Sure. Rough? Maybe, but some looked pretty good in the pics.
