    Every Chevrolet convertible since 1912

    Every Chevrolet convertible since 1912

    Wow ! What do you suppose this collection is worth ?

    This collection belongs to Dennis Albaugh in Ankeny , Iowa , just north of Des Moines ...

    The personal and private collection consists of 110 + Chevrolet convertibles...
    all years from 1912 to 1975 and Corvette convertibles from 1953 to 1975.

    That is a Chevy convertible from every year of manufacture EXCEPT 1939...
    The reason? - Chevy didn't make a convertible in '39 -- and ended its convertible line in '75!

    His 'boy toys' include his own 18 hole golf course, copied somewhat after Augusta National.
    He is what you call a REAL Chevy guy, but his passion seems to be convertibles !

    This billionaire made his fortune selling farm chemicals !

    Sorry couldn't get the pictures to post!!!

    This is enough to make a grown man CRY !!!!
    What a collection......gorgeous !!! Enjoy the trip down Memory Lane .

    Cheers

    I'm pretty sure he ended up with my 68 427 vette. I know it went to Des Moines when I sold it and I saw it in one of the pictures of his collection.
    I remember when hot rods were all home made.
