A Gold Mine For Chevrolet Collectors!


When you hear Pierce County, Nebraska, there probably isn’t much that comes to mind. However, within this small community there is an old, independent Chevrolet Dealer with a “time capsule” of sorts hidden within its brick walls. For over 50 years, Lambrecht Chevrolet Co. served the community of Pierce as the trusted Chevy dealer.  When owners Ray and Mildred Lambrecht closed their doors in 1996, they left behind not only decades of memories, but many decade’s worth of classic, untouched, untitled, never before driven Chevrolets.  In fact, there are over 50 cars and trucks with less than 4 miles on them – some with the plastic covering and window stickers intact. Then add another 500 or so less valuable trade in vehicles to that collection sitting in a nearby field and you have one extraordinarily rare assembly of classic automobiles ranging from the 1930`s to 1980`s.

Among the most valued vehicles are a 1964 Chevrolet Impala, 1978 Chevrolet Corvette, multiple Chevelles and Corvairs and a 1958 Cameo pick up with less than 4 miles on it.  Have you ever owned a new 1958 vehicle? What an incredible story – and it could be you!  The Lambrecht family has made the decision to sell off their classic Chevrolet collection with VanDerBeek Auctions on September 28 and 29th, 2013.
