KANSAS CITY, Mo. -

KCI Auto Auction recently revealed the country music group that will headline its Guitars and Cars Sale later this summer. After music group The Cronkites performs, the event will showcase country music group Diamond Rio.

The three-day event is slated for Aug. 23 through Aug. 25, kicking off with a 300-plus-unit late-model sale on the afternoon of the first day.

The Guitars and Cars private party and concert — featuring The Cronkites and Diamond Rio — will take place the night of Aug. 24.

On the morning of Aug. 25 is the Guitars and Cars Main Event sale. More than 2,000 vehicles will be up for sale.

Additionally, customers in either sale will be eligible for post-sale prize giveaways.

“We’re gearing up for this event and are anticipating record breaking consignment numbers,” said Doug Doll, co-owner of KCI Auto Auction. “A lot of preparation is involved with an event of this size, but most importantly, a lot of fun is had by all.”
