It’s official! TMI, a specialty interior component manufacturer, has selected the winners of its 2023 TMI TRIM Awards at the SEMA Show in Las Vegas. All 10 of the winning vehicles have earned the privilege to participate in the esteemed Barrett-Jackson Cup competition, which will take place during the 2024 Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale Auction, scheduled for January 20-28 at WestWorld.
For the 2024 Barrett-Jackson Cup competition, 50 custom builders will contend for two important awards. The first is the People’s Choice Award, determined by votes from Barrett-Jackson fans worldwide on social media. The second is the coveted Ultimate Best in Show title, chosen by two respected builders, Troy Trepanier and Bobby Alloway.
Barrett-Jackson executives will pick competitors from the applications received. These chosen entrants will be prominently featured on QuikTrip Family Day, scheduled for Saturday, January 20, where they will make a grand entrance by parading across the iconic auction block. Following this, they will be on display at the Scottsdale Auction throughout the entire week.
Each of the first five weekdays (January 22-26) of the Collector Car Auction will see the revelation of one of the Top Five finalists. Then, on the thrilling morning of Super Saturday, January 27, the stage will be electrified with the announcement of the Ultimate Best in Show winner. The recipients of this esteemed title and the People’s Choice Award will both be crowned before the start of that day’s Collector Car Auction.
