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

this is maybe my favorite look for a t.

 

Another fine photo from Harold "The Spot" Ott....
Sorry, couldn't resist. Yeah, nice clean, simple hot rod. Can't beat slicks, Corvette valve covers, dual quads and my favorite speed shop headlight stands.

 

Anymore pics? Very slick basic bucket with no extra shit!

 

This one was at waldens open house today.

 

I was told on another Bucket thread on here that it's not a T bucket if it has a Turtle Deck....WTF!! JW

 

that's ridiculous.

 

a local t. in a land of teslas and student protests cars like this are rare here.

 

Just, WOW! I googled this man and car, and I'm thinking that the Whatever project is so subpar. This car is so well proportioned, and the detail work is amazing.

Thanks for posting this. Now I'm convinced that I should sell everything and take up butterfly collecting...

 

If you believe that this is not a bucket, just press the report button and the moderators (@Moriarity, @corncobcoupe) will delete it if there is an issue.

 

I know that disagreeing with a SUPER Moderator like @Moriarity will probably get me banned but if Norm is the Father of the T-bucket then Norm's car is the benchmark of the style. A T with a turtle deck is a roadster and is a factory produced body style. T-buckets were never a factory bodystyle and could have pick-up beds, fuel tanks or nothing behind the body, whatever the builder fancied but NOT a turtle deck. That's my take on it and I've been a bucket owner for 62 years. Let the flaming begin LOL

 

Yup

 

You speak the truth ..

 

Good Grief man , everyone's opinion isn't contingent on " Super moderators " LOL

 

Where’s the steering column and wheel. They must be sitting very close to floor level. Love the simplicity and clean look.

 

Probably the only thing I’d change…slightly taller steering column and floor shifter!

 

Opinions are like a$&#!les , everybody has one .

 

Bucket body for sure…no roadster portion of body with trunk lid!

Short pickup box at rear ( most common variation)
Turtle deck at rear
Gas tank or beer keg at rear
Just a rear crossmember at rear
Some sort of roll bar mounted off frame at rear

 

I love this place

 

i noticed that too. and i'd really like to find more pix of this one.

 

"instant t".

 

my eyes are having trouble but it looks like a t body to me. the light post obscures the windshield too but i can make out what looks like an aircraft steering wheel.
