Hot Rods How about some love for the T-Bucket?

Another.

 

My old T Bucket I wish I never got rid of!

 

Here's one we built in the early '60's. Hamilton, ON, CANADA.
We started out with a '32 truck cab. Built the tube frame then changed to the T. We had to widen the T four inches to put it on the frame.
Steel body with opening doors. From Hezzie Armstrong in Rome, NY.

 

Very nice modified, “bucket”!

 

Excuse me?! Careful with that, as there's quite a few folks on here that have sixes, (both flathead and overhead), in their rods.

Just sayin'.....Roger

 

They're kinda like engine display/test-stands... that you can drive.

 

Many years ago an older gentleman walked up to my T , looked it over & said , " Damn son ,that's about as close as you can get to strapping your**** to an engine ! "

For the first time I’m thinking about a T-Bucket. As I said in the post Covid thread I’ve had to do a job change and a state to state move. Doubt I’ll have time to touch the truck before New Years. Been thinking about pushing that back and building something silly I could have on the road quickly.

Being back in Florida I’ve been jonesing for something open and cheap for a beach cruiser. The ideas of the week is bucket along the lines of the first (black) version of the Grabowski car. Or a glass body dune buggy. There are new Manx knock off bodies about as cheap as I could resurrect an old one.

Buggy is probably more suitable for my tall and rotund shape, but I already have a motor - trans - and possibly rear end suitable for a bucket.
