Back around 1979, we went on a little afternoon
cruise with a local car club. The final destination was the Meager
Collection. The owner had been a Chevrolet dealer for many decades, and
he had one Chevy from every year dating back to 1934. Most were good
original cars that he had been unable to sell. He had so many cars,
they were literally hanging from the rafters... Of particular interest was
the 1975 Chevy Caprice Classic convertible, which was one of the very last
to come down the assembly line. He took this car and sealed it inside
a trailer... I think it had Nitrogen pumped in to keep the car from
oxidizing... Pretty extreme stuff... Anyway, years later these cars all
showed up at Auburn, and rolled across the auction block. |
