In the wikipedia article it says that Bishop Storck was ordained in 1973. Does anyone know if he was conditionally ordained before his consecration to the episcopate?
Bishop Kurz, who ordained him, was apparently one of the first 'traditional' bishops. He was working with the Catholic Traditionalist Movement in 1966

I found this (using Google translation):

"Although he was already from Münster or Cologne in 1967/1968 Diocesan bishop could have been ordained (still valid ordination rite and valid consecration succession, even before the introduction of the „new mass“!), he rejected dismissed this opportunity on the grounds that he did not want the consecration Received by bishops who lived at Vatican II.felled Supported decisions and thus helped destroy the Catholic faith were involved.

So it took until 1973 for his Ordained a priest until he came into contact with him Franciscan Missionary Bishop Blasius Kurz, who in turn lived in St. Peter's Basilica in Rome by Pope Pius XII. to the bishop (for the mission in China) was consecrated. Bishop Kurz was one of them at the council conservative council participants around Cardinal Ottaviani and held despite Introduction of the „Novus Ordo Missae“ loyalty to the traditional mass rite. This ordination took place on September 21, 1973 in Egg near Zurich."

I was blessed to be able to go to Mass at St. Joseph's today on the Feast of the Presentation of Our Lady.  You wouldn't know it from the poor surroundings, but it is a beautiful little haven where Father Courtney Krier has continued God's mission to keep the Faith. It made me think some of the best chapels are the ones hidden among poor surroundings, just like when Jesus was born in a stable.
For where it is (a somewhat dodgy section of downtown Las Vegas), it is very nice.  My mother, requiescat in pace, commented that "this place has potential".  My father, again, RIP, remained with our car as he did not get a good feeling about leaving it parked.  Out-of-state plates and loaded with luggage would have immediately screamed "tourist".
