    Speedway motors have a basic t bucket that I think is cool because it looks similar to Ed Roth "Tweedy Pie" and Fred Steele's.

    Kinda sorta! You sure could doll up that basic bucket kit to look more the part, and it's you first go-round in this deal it would be a good one. Just doing early Ford suspension stuff instead of standard T-bucket norm would back date it quite a bit and maybe end up a bit less expensive in the long run.

    Did you order their catalog? I really like some of the rides in it and look great.

    I keep going back and forth on channeling or not. I hate lose any leg room.

    I really like the black traditional T they built.

    id buy MATACONCEPTS bucket before i bought speedways. its real steel with a real past. in the end makes for a better car and youll be more satisfied in the end with a non cookie cutter speedway bolt together bucket.

    I look at speedway motors for inspiration. Once I start to build mine the frame will be built by me and the body will be from a local company Class Glass & Performance. Iam lucky enough to be a certified welder and have worked in body shops.
     
  7. Of the hundreds of times I've seen this photo I never noticed Ed's shoes on the ground beside the car before. HRP
