During his five decades running a Chevrolet dealership in Nebraska, Ray Lambrecht held onto his customers' trade-ins (and quite a few new models too), amassing a collection of more than 500 cars, parked on a nearby farm. After Lambrecht's death, his collection went up for auction. The sale drew 25,000 people, was filmed for the History Channel, and raised $2.8 million.
