Post-1965 T Buckets

Seems there is an event in St. Louis area. Grabbed this pic from coverage over on the bucketeer site. Thanks to Spanky over there.

 

Top pikky was the day I hit the concrete wall at the dragstrip. The month before I had done my first (and only) 9 second run (9.95 @ 145).

Sold the car on and its new owners rebuilt it and its back on the street.

 

Ouch! I take it you are okay.

@Dave G in Gansevoort would probably like to pick you brain about a roll bar/cage.

I don't want to "Like" that pic, but that car is/was awesome! Tell us, did it keep up with traffic?

 

I remember this guy came on and talked about this build and drive.

One that is way off the typical build.

I'll be dipped... guy actually finished it, - or someone cloned his idea. Was a writeup/partial feature in a 1001 Rod& Custom Ideas in the 80s(?). Don't have the mag at my fingertips. Nose & sidepods look abit different than I remember, but still... I like it. Bet that'd be a fun ride... Looks like some passengers did some serious butt-clenching... .

Spanky over on the bucketeers site posted about another meet and included pics. Here's a nice one.
