| No Comments
From the VanDerBrink Auctions website:
Summary: Amazing Collection of Chevrolet Cars still on MSO and Low miled Trades-True Survivor Cars. Also approx. 500 Collector cars for project, parts and Rod. Parts, Tools and More!
And the story:
The Story of Ray P. Lambrecht and Lambrecht Chevrolet Company by Jeannie Lambrecht Stillwell
Urban legends speak of a former Midwest Chevy dealer with a collection of hundreds of vehicles hidden away in a rural setting. Rumors abound regarding this man and the mystery of that collection. The man behind that legend is my father, Ray P. Lambrecht. Dad owned and operated Lambrecht Chevrolet Company from 1946 until 1996, selling new Chevrolets to multiple generations of families all over the Midwest and beyond. This is his story.
And the upshot:
The decision to auction the inventory of Lambrecht Chevrolet Company was a difficult and painful one. The collection of over 500 true survivor vehicles comprise a lifetime of hard work, tears, and joy for both of my parents. The dealership today is a virtual time capsule that will be opened and all contents will be sold at auction. The inventory of the dealership�s vehicles includes many new cars with original MSO�s as well as hundreds of rare 50�s and 60�s Chevys ideal for restoration projects. Looking back at the history of Lambrecht Chevrolet, my parents have no regrets, and are proud of the thousands of new cars and trucks they sold to many generations of happy customers. They hope that these rare collectible vehicles will now be the source of joy and inspiration for car enthusiasts everywhere.

VanDerBrink Auctions, LLC is honored to offer this Time Capsule of Chevrolets. It's amazing. A 1956 Chevrolet Cameo Pickup with less than 10 miles on MSO, a 1963 Chevrolet Impala with less than 10 miles on MSO, and the list goes on including many from the 1950's, 60's including Tri-Fives, Chevelles, Impalas, and more. There is also an assortment of cars that were Trades and were parked away and not sold. There is also an assortment of NOS parts, tools, some advertising, and more. Plan now to come to Pierce, NE on the weekend of September 28th & 29th, 2013 at 9:30 Am. This is a once in a lifetime auction that collectors only dream about- finding a "new" old Car in a barn- a True Survivor- The True Barn Find. This collection has been talked about and Urban Legend for years. But now the Time Capsule will be opened and auctioned to the Highest bidder. For more information www.vanderbrinkauctions.com or call VanDerBrink Auctions, LLC at 605-201-7005. Preview will be before the auction and a video will be posted prior to the auction. You won't want to miss this auction!
Just wow -- I am not into old cars. I know people who are and I love their vehicles but there is just too much money that goes in to doing a decent job of restoration. That being said, I would love to be there for the auction -- this is truly a once in a lifetime event. MSO stands for "Manufacturer's Statement of Origin" and is the equivalent of a vehicle title as it comes from the manufacturer to the dealer. Basically, a vehicle with an M.S.O. has never been sold.
