This could be considered a “T-Bucket” and we’ll tell you why. The top of the cowl and windshield are from a 1923 Model T roadster body, and for good measure the grille shell is from a 1929 Model A Ford. Taking inspiration from these early Ford elements, the builder has created his more massive version of a T-Bucket. It’s got a certain stance, with deeper wheels and wider tires in the rear, and a massive outside exhaust that also conveniently incorporates a step to make ingress and egress a pleasure. Maybe the owner just wanted a higher highboy roadster. Or maybe he was high when he put pen to paper and torch to frame and in that haze of smoke and merriment imagined this. We can say it must be a reliable, road-going heap because it has mirrors, headlights, that convenient step, and that just arrived vibe. It’s got chrome, paint, flames, and cool wheels; which is more than we can say for a multitude of half-finished projects languishing in garages and storage facilities around the country. So kudos to the owner and/or builder, and we can’t wait to see what you might conjure up next.
