Just a bump of this 13 year old thread . . . to fix all the photos that were hosted on "PhotoBucket"

40cpe - Correct! aussiesteve - Nope ... The Secrest Collection was in the Tulsa Oklahoma area. 2ndgeer - Good guess ... This barn was definitely in the Guadalupe / Nipomo area ... but I can't confirm it was actually part of the Tognazzini family dairy farms.

Sold yesterday for $319,000 ...

Yes ... all of these photographs were taken at the same location ... an old dairy farm in the Central California Coastal town of Guadalupe ... I'll let the pics tell the rest of the story ... Enjoy!

From what I have gathered (from the replies in this thread and from elsewhere on the Internet) ... After Mr. Secrest's death in 1995, the collection was broken up (i.e., the cars were sold piecemeal) and Don Thelen purchased most (if not all) of the remaining parts from Seek's wife Corrine &...

Found a couple more pics taken that same day in August of 1976:

G.M. - Very, very nice!

G.M. - I just noticed your post :o ... this is exactly the kind of info I was hoping for with this thread! :) I assume your '32 Cabriolet was the restoration that Mr. Secrest recently acquired (and "Big Virg" & "Mr. Brown" were restoring) in August of 1976? Please post some pics of your...

FYI ... the Kowalsky Kustoms website moved to http://www.kowalskykustoms.com. Krylon32 ... I assume this your B400 conversion?: both photos taken October 4, 2005

Denise ... Thanks for replying ... but technically that's really not an "embedded" video ... it's just a fancy link that takes the user to your Photobucket Album ... and plays the video clip in another browser window. I PMed Ryan about this subject ... but he has yet to reply ... perhaps...

Bruce ... I don't think anyone (besides you) has ever "got the joke" ... perhaps a phonetic spelling will help: Thertito [thur-tee-too]

Chad ... not to drift too far off topic ... but yes, The Nick Alexander Woodie Collection was/is stored in a Huntington Park (SoCal) warehouse ... at one time, Nick had at least one of every Ford wood-bodied station wagon made from 1932 to 1957 ... in August of 2009, 51 of his Ford & Mercury...

barryfromvictoria ... "Theodore Thertito" is just a fictitious name that the authors of the "DEUCE HEAVEN" article (Gary "Goodguy" Meadors & "Deuce Bruce" Olson) used to protect Mr. Secrest's true identity.
