Thumbs up FIXED! Images now linked!! Every Chevy Convertible under one roof!!

WHAT A COLLECTION !
Top this one
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 !

Looks great, Id like to get a look at those.
Not sure why it says chevy stopped making convertibles though, models from the 80's and up should be pretty cheap and easy to find.

I see that black 60 Impala's ass hanging out, looks like Jeeves been borrowing the 60 again

I don't see an early year Blazer there.
They were convertible from the windshield back.
I had a 78 but always wanted a 72.
