Hi:
When my dad was a dealer I worked as his 'DMV Clerk' and bookkeeper and also attended auctions with him in Hayward (forget the name but you can see the car lot from 880 right North of Whipple) and Tracy (Golden Gate right off of 205 to the West of Tracy).
But these are for licensed dealers only. You can not get in or bid without being a licensed car dealer or an employee. That requires having a display area, bond, some classes and other requirements.
We sometimes went to public 'open' auctions but did not buy that many units because either the pricing was too high or too much work required to restore.
For private party, the best deal is Internet sites on Yahoo or MSN, Craig's List or the newspaper. Auctions are fast paced and really hyped up. They are not a good place to buy cars for most non-dealers.
Take your time, check carefully, look for oil leaks underneath with a flashlight (ha ha, that was sometimes my job). Know what you are buying to estimate reconditioning costs.
Good Luck,
Jin Ju

Answer
Auto trader is good. www.autotrader.com. They have many used cars and a research page you can compair as old as like 1980. I would also go to consumers affairs to check for recalls. Also MSN auto & yahoo autos are a good source for info on specs and technical data. Both have bluebook info also.
