I thought Mike Reynolds owned 1002 and 1006? Did you purchase from him or are you guys somehow related?

Either way, it's an amazing collection. Looks like a good place for a Tucker Club Convention!

Wow! This is the first time (that I know of) since Mr.Cammack bought his third Tucker in 1974 that more than two Tuckers have been brought into same home...(historians, am I correct?) Reaching back into history I'm fairly certain that the most extensive collections were those of Nick Jenin and Ezra Schliph. Nick Jenin seems to have started liquidating his collection including seven Tuckers in 1964, culminating with the 1974 sale of #1026 to Mr. Cammack. Bill Hamlin owned #1002 and #1014 for many years and #1009 (only briefly, though probably concurrent with the other two). He had others in his garage though he was probably restoring some for other owners, not the owner and presumably himself. Apart from the Swigart Museum and presumably Coppola, I know of no other two-Tucker collections currently.

This is a great post, but I had trouble seeing the photos because they are so huge, can you make them a little smaller?

hi i tried to make them as small as i could, but were you can still see the car. you may be able to try and make them smaller if you save them then edit them. but that was the best that i could do sorry.

So it all begs the question: Which is your favorite? I suppose 1006 for concours events, 1002 for cruise nights and 1041 for trips to the grocery store? :D

Brad: I cannot tell you how much joy you have brought to us TACA members to read how much you are enjoying your three great cars. We are a very unusual marque club in that a very few members still have not seen a Tucker car in person, many have never ridden in a Tucker car, most have never driven a Tucker car, and very few have ever owned a Tucker car. We do not have personal experiences with a Tucker car as we do with more common collector cars- our experiences are gained only when owners of Tucker cars allow us to see and experience their cars.

You have three cars with great history- all three cars over time had at least one owner that allowed us to experience their respective car. Our collective fear has been that Tucker cars would end up mostly being with anonymous personal or institutional owners. That these three Tucker cars ended up with an obvious car enthusiast willing to talk about and show us the cars is very exciting. How amazing that with so few cars made and costs of the cars being so high today that we would have two great individuals, you and Dave Camamack, each owning and sharing with us three beautiful Tucker cars. Thank you. You have our deep respect and friendship.

Thanks for sharing these with us Brad. I got to ride in a Tucker at a show in Hershey Pennsylvania back in the 1970s, I'll never forget it.
