    Default Repost, might get more feedback here

    Posted this in the KF but just going to mak a thread in here since this is the old school forum.

    1929 Ford T-Bucket
    351ci Cleveland Motor
    TH400
    Ford 9"
    Original oil wick lamps
    Edlebrock Carbs













    Not pictured
    New wheels



    The T-bucket orginally was built by my Uncle everything was chromed except for the bucket(part of the frame is now painted red). Which was also not red, but black. It also had a lincoln 462 ci motor in it instead of the 351ci. Somewhere down the road he got bored with it, and never drove it so he sold it to somebody. A few years down the road he was at a car show saw a t-bucket (how it looks now) and decided to start talking to the owner. My uncle started to look at the frame and saw the markings(Said J.D. 1952) he left on it before he sold the t-bucket. Found out the guy was in need for some money since he was going through a divorce and bought it for around 8-9k. Now my uncle never uses it so he pretty much gave it to me and it's going in my garage next Janurary.

    Pretty sweet ride. Makes me think of the Munsters or some old school Scooby-Doo cartoons. How does it drive?

    can't turn at all, rides a little rough, mainly cause of the motor. however last time i stomped on it from a dig it was lifting tire, so its finally running right.

    just finished redoing the entire front end. extended it 12 inches and put the whole fornt suspension on with rotors and calipers. it now finally sits on the ground on all 4 tires. working on cuting the holes for the gauges and welding the steering box and brake master cylider this weekend.

    its been a fun build so far
