Default Talk About a Chevrolet Paradise ***LOTS OF PICS***

Def wouldn't mind having this car collection.... My uncle's co worker went to this guys house/office/private golf course in Iowa. The guy only owns CHEVROLET cars. Obviously he didn't get a picture of every car but I guess the guy has one of each Chevrolet car ever made of each year..

The guys name is Dennis Albaugh and his collection in Ankeny, Ia is all Chevrolet and all convertibles. He also has an 18 hole golf course and is listed on Forbes Billionaire's list.

The guy has made a few right moves in his life

His collection rivals Jay Leno's.

That said, I'm jealous he has so much money that he can spend millions on useless metal.

I wouldn't call it useless... I mean when you got billions of dollars to spend on whatever you want? What would you spend it on..... I know if I had that much extra cash I would def start a hell of a collection

Um....some of those cars have plaques in front of them that are BOLTED to the ground. So I imagine that some of them don't get driven too often. Sure he could get them out with some maneuvering but it would be a pain.

I see where you are coming from, but you have to think every mile that is put on those cars depreciates the value of his collection. I applaud his efforts at keeping such a prestine collection.
