Dennis Albaugh

Car collector

Albaugh LLC is based in Ankeny, as is Albaugh's collection of 150 classic cars, especially Chevrolet convertibles. Albaugh started the collection with the purchase in 1998 of a 1957 Chevy Bel Air convertible from a golfing friend and told his wife he would stop when he completed the Tri-Five Chevrolets, the 1955, 1956 and 1957 models. His collection of about 150 vehicles, mostly convertibles, includes the Tri-Five Chevrolets as well as Chevy models from 1912 to 1975 and is housed in a garage in Ankeny. In August 2018, he sold his house in Ankeny to Todd Rueter, an Elkhart businessman, for $2.32 million, having built a slightly smaller home nearby.

He owns a private 19-hole golf course, Talons Golf, in Ankeny.
