Default Lambrecht Chevrolet Dealership auction

Not Ford but interesting there still out there a Nabraska auction to clean off dusty 500-vehicle "time capsule" from the inventory of Lambrecht Chevrolet's dealership vintage car collection and some of the cars have no miles on them.

How many miles did that Cameo have on it? I missed it the first 12 times she said it.

It looked to me like there was a row of 34 Fords also. Could I have been dreaming?

There are a fair number of '50s-'70s Fords in the auction, as well. I'd suspect they were cars that the dealership took on trade and never resold or sent to a dealer auction.

A lot of the cars seem to be 4-door sedans. Probably won't sell for a whole lot since everyone seems to prefer 2-doors and wagons.


Van Der Brink has another auction later this month (July 20th) that has a 33/34 and other older Fords in it. They typically seem to be the auction house that deals with the old car auctions here in the Midwest.

I plan on going to the Lambrecht auction in Pierce ,Nebraska in Sept.They also have one July 20 in Hastings ,Nebraska,where I live .It's about 4 miles from my house .Go to the web site to see both auctions.They have been having quite a time in Pierce ,Nebr.with people wanting to see the cars already .Guess guards were hired .Should be interesting .Most cars have no more than 4 miles on them . One has 11 and another has 17 miles on it.Fresh off the truck and into the dealership building .They weren't even dealer prepped . The auction where I live has alot of old Fords.There are a ton of collector cars and trucks around this area.

That 1st mile on the Cameo must have been a rough one
cause if you pay close attention, you will notice the roof
is smashed in pretty good in the front, over the winshield.

There is a better picture of the roof damage in another film.
At the end of the first film, look for the Cameo picture, and
click on that film for a better picture.
