Sacramento Valley Home With Classic Cars, Antique Collections Burned To Ground

A Vacaville home known for its incredible antique collections is nothing but ashes after flames took down an entire neighborhood.

More than a dozen classic cars, dolls and furniture from the early 1900s are all gone. All that’s left standing of Ken and Marci Albers’ home on Estate Drive is the chimney.

“Ken’s the one who woke up and looked out the window and saw the flames,” Marci said. The flames didn’t even spare the garages — yes, they had more than one to store those classic cars.

“1956 Chevy Nomad — it was a project I was working on, 1957 Chevy Coop that I drove quite often,” Ken said.

Ken can list every detail — big or small — of each one. He and his wife were collectors, cherishing every prized possession.
