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

Yip, the mag says it's a 27. JW

 

I think someone should start a new thread,

"Traditional Terminology that H.AM.B. Members Think Should be Revised to What We Wish it Was"

This could be the final word on what is and isn't a T bucket. And hopefully, it could settle whether any Mopars were 'Muscle Cars' before the 1964 GTO.

Maybe just title it "I Needed Something to Bitch About and Argue Over"

 

I don't know what anybody classifies the whatever project as, it's got a t body after all. But I also don't care.

I could care less, if I cared at all. But seeing as how I don't care, I couldn't care less...

Oh well, just my useless comment

 

The Larry Ryan T bucket.


Come on guys, you'll mess up your lipstick. Pick up your handbags and get back to what's real.

 

As that famous Italian racing ass... err ace, Benedetto Magneto always said, " As long as it'sa gotta bigga engine, whoa cares?"

 

Very Tweddy Pie influenced.....or maybe it was the inspiration for the Tweedy Pie?

I looked through a LOT of pages of this thread looking for another T that's of the same flavor as Cotton's roadster but gave up looking.

If memory serves correctly, I think it was Hemi powered and maybe was lime green. It was on pretty wide chrome reverse wheels as I remember. Anyone have that photo or know what page it might be on?

Thanks Snicklefritz65, but Paul got the one I was looking for. ^^^^ Thanks Paul!

It looks as though it would be about like driving a big Go Kart!

I know I posted it before but I made it to Pendine and back… so here’s me and my daughter courtesy of Greg’s Photos.

 

Cool to have your kid there cheering you on

 

that's really cool. a great photographic scene and a great dad-daughter moment.

 

Just when I thought a cool pic of every T bucket was posted up comes this stuff! Makes me miss mine even more. Let's face it, we've all had at least one sometime....
