One hundred years of American automotive history hits the auction block at no reserve Saturday morning in North Little Rock.

The auction, at 4343 Roundtop Road (click here for map), ranges from a 1908 Maxwell (Lot S71) to a 2008 Roush-powered Ford Mustang (Lot S140).

With an example of nearly every major domestic manufacturer represented in the collection, this special event will be a true celebration of the American automobile.
