I will start this thread with this disclaimer, that I have no connection to the sale of any of these cars, just posting the info for anyone who may be interested in some items of possibly, significant historical value.
On September 28th and 29th, 2013 (with a preview on Fri the 27th) there will be an auction in Pierce Nebraska of the contents of Lambrecht Chevrolet, I guess its been closed up for many, many years. Some cars have been stored indoors, like the 1978 Corvette silver anniversary edition (Pace car maybe?) and the white C-1 pedal car

I can just imagine the records that are located there in the shelves of the office, no computers back then, I'm sure

Then, there are the cars that were stored outdoors , I'm sure they are in rough shape, but some have as little as 5 miles on them, What a shame!!

I will attach 3 videos of about 8 minutes each

I even saw a copy of my first car, a white 1965 Impala SS, (mine was a 283) and the one in the video was a big block 396 car.
I wonder what some of those cars will sell for?, if anyone goes, take some pictures.
Regards
Roy

I think the Cameo pickup with single digit miles on it is the pick of the litter.

Probably so, but how many threads have been posted on tires, oil, paint, overheating BBs, ethanol, etc.?

did mr. lambrecht own a 53 corvette or is this a story that his son started? i believe the family owned a early corvette, but believe it was a later 54.

Whats confusing is the low miles on different years vehicles. Dealers dont hold unsold cars for several years.None of this makes sense. When did this place go out of buslness? No one wanted a pedal car from 56 to 1974? One one pedal car was allowed to each dealer. This place is a mystery.

Walter there are several good sites on the internet that talk about his collection. Vanderbrink Auction site has a pretty good story, or a link to one, about Harvey

I thought she kept saying "Vanderbrink Auctions" with an "S" - over and over.
