Sweet looking Impala !
The '78 Chevy 350 in my t-bucket has been in at least 10 of my cars since I pulled it out of a 3/4 ton truck twenty years ago. Original rings and...
I finished mine a couple of years ago. Still makes me smile every time I drive it.[ATTACH]
The bucket looks great Tim!
I run Coopers too. Good value, good looking tire.
I have about 5 years on my latest set of hockey puck motor mounts with no signs of crumbling.
That is the car that prompted me to build my first bucket. I loved simplicity of it. Nothing that wasn't needed, no trinkets, garbage, etc......

[ATTACH] This one checks all the boxes for me. I love 60's t-buckets.
I posted a picture of mine in the Torq Thrust thread, but here it is again. Totally impractical, but totally fun![ATTACH]
Thanks! Fronts are Firestone F560s and the backs are Starfires by Cooper.

My SW speedometer lasted 500 miles until the plastic gears stripped out. The cheap Speedway unit I bought for an temporary replacement has been...
I think it was a V8 one. But if you're adding an inlet and outlet it doesn't matter because as far as I know that is the only difference. The...
I had an additional inlet and outlet added to 65-66 Mustang radiator. It fits in the Model A shell and cools my flathead fine.
I'm running Ford F1 brakes on the front, S10 brakes rear on my t-bucket. I used this pedal assembly:...
I agree. That fan is so unobtrusive, that I wouldn't mess with it. Loom the wiring and call it good. What fan is that?
I get it. I liked the steel wheels (I can always swap back and forth ). The car was like a blank canvas or a white wall before . It needed...
[ATTACH] When I bought this ragged sedan body for $300, the condition of sale was that it had to go immediately. Unfortunately, I was driving...
Like squirrel posted, the polished 15x5 are available : https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https://www.ebay.com/ulk/itm/182370142822...
I changed out the wheels on my bucket. [ATTACH] I liked the steel wheels and hubcaps, but as I said before, the plan always was to run a 5 spoke...

Thanks for the kind words. They might be a tad exaggerated , but I'll take them. :cool:. There's a lot of things left I want to change to get...
[ATTACH] Here it is with a 2" taller rear tire and a 1" block on top of the rear spring. It'd be nice to find a little narrower tire than these...
With a Socal 4" drop axle and 26" tires, I can't get my floor jack under the axle without running the front tires up un 2x6s. So, 9 1/2" is...
Tim, I know what you are saying. The pictures make it look like a lot more of a taildragger than it actually is. I still have the 265's that I...
The fronts are Firestone 165R15's and the rears are Starfire 235/75-15's. The rake is all rubber. The rear of the frame before the kick up sits...
[ATTACH] Drove mine today for the first time in over a year. While I was waiting for an opening at the body shop, I sewed up the seat and...
