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

The maroon/burgundy T is so pretty it apparently caused emotions to well up in the fellow wearing brown pants that he shed a few tears.

Those rear wheels are pretty cool. I don't think I've seen any like them before. Any idea of the brand?

good question. i hope some sage mind here knows.

 

Those look like roundy-round wheels...

 

Now that would be a cool combo to have!

 

This one is local.
It seems like it's late 50's style.
SOLD, NOT TO ME!.

 

That's cool. As a matter of interest... what would you pay for something like that in the USA? Here in New Zealand it'd probably be about $30,000/$35,000. T-Buckets in general seem to go for anywhere from $20,000 to $40,000 down here it seems.

I haven't seen the ad but around here I think a glass bodied, small block chevy powered T like that would be around $18k, +/- a grand or so

 

^^^^^^^^^^^^^

It is SOLD, NOT TO ME!
I haven't seen it, only the ad, so I can't know,
but I would expect glass, but maybe old glass!
The number says $13,500.
I HAVE NO CONNECTION!
If I looked at it, and fit in it, I would want it bad!

 

10-15K is comin in western NY...

 

I used to post current ads in the Bucket of Ugly thread showing what was available and for comments on fixing the stuff out there. It incited blowback, so I stopped.
Here in the USA, all used car prices have jumped a lot in the past 2 years. Coupled with the constant changes in media to list for sale, it's getting harder to track. A complete running and driving car with no strange stuff will start at around 15-20K. Really nice cars without any questions or extras are 25K and up. When you have all the chrome, pro paint , upholstery and top, it's usually a dealer selling which adds even more. Bargains can be found but they are few and far between, with the list of personal changes to make it your own often adding to more than a better, closer example.

 

^^^^ that’s perfection right there!

 

that's a neat little one right there. i'd like to see the front suspension and other details.

 

^^^^
Cool little T…looks like fun. Probably built for the cost of a mint Deuce 3W door!

 

That’s Walt Kaline’s T. Being Pontiac powered was what caught my eye as a a kid. He owned a chrome shop in the LA area. Nice car, it seemed to be in all of the local car shows back then.

 

And it looks awesome in color...

 

From 1964...

 

Another 1964...
