    I think my friend Bob Keeney painted that t-bucket. He's been painting and striping since the 50's here in Indy. That sure looks like his signature on this. He's got a cool old t-bucket now (amongst others) and might be the next owner of mine...

    Dont wanna be rude here but i started this thread for 60s style t-buckets and you and others sneak in some regular t-bucket stuff that aint near 60s style so im sorry,your car doesent belong in this thread;)

    So this is to anyone who post pics here,its 60 style (some 40s or 50s is ok) that i want,no boring regular t-bucket ugliness thanks (no hard feelings):D

    I bought my slicks on E-bay,they were re-capped on regular radials.
    in the front i got some old tires from a friend,they were on his 49ford but he wanted ww-tires.They got a thin white line that fits perfect in the 60s style.
