    One year and a whole bunch a work but I am almost done, a few more wires and a couple more times around the bleeders and its done (for now), This project was built by my father and myself in our garage. Lots of help from friends and plenty of swap meets. We are very proud of our little T.

    What would you charge for something like that? It would be a great gift and thanks to my father for all of his hard work.

    Nice piece! I like the fact that you set it up totally different from the run of the mill T bucket. Congrats...

    We do one every Wednesday night about 6:00ish in Tracy at the Wally Burger on 11th street. Ripon is pretty close, there are some *****in' backroads to drive between us if you don't feel like taking the freeway, and you're welcome to join us!!

    If you'd like an ****** for some shakedown runs or just to cruise around, let me know, you're pretty close, and I love just driving my jalopy around! :)

    Looks like fun...Nice build. Who gets to drive you or dad ?
     
  27. Neat car... I like the look with the rear axle back further than most T-buckets that are built. It gives it an old timey feel!
