    Any one know about "Street Rods, Parts, and Memorabilia" in Ohio?

    Got a relpy from Scott Rods. They no longer do a T Bucket. Here is the reply.... Hi (Name deleted), I’m sorry but we have retired the ’23 t-bucket mold. Speedway Motors does sell a kit so you may want to check out their website. Have a nice day!

    Any one know about "Street Rods, Parts, and Memorabilia" in Ohio?

    Well, that confirms it. EITHER Street Rods bought the molds from ClassGlassPerformance. OR Street Rods buys complete bodies from CGP (or vise versa) It's the same pictures on both websites. Thanks Old round fart.

    Any one know about "Street Rods, Parts, and Memorabilia" in Ohio?

    Thanks for all the input guys. I've emailed Scott Rods, waiting reply. I will email Street rods. Can't find anything about Classical Glass. Are they still in business?

    Any one know about "Street Rods, Parts, and Memorabilia" in Ohio?

    "Street Rods..." does seem to have a bunch of bodies available. This could mean they buy up molds from others when they go out of business. They seen to be focused on Model A and above ('32 and 'newer'), not much for a '23. Here is the thing that got me interested though. Their T bucket body...

    I believe it's ....First,previous, post Number(the one you are reading)/Total posts, next, last. I could be wrong. In your example it would be post 1 of 11

    Any one know about "Street Rods, Parts, and Memorabilia" in Ohio?

    My thoughts exactly, that's why I questioned it. Thanks Spanky and Old Round Fart.

    Any one know about "Street Rods, Parts, and Memorabilia" in Ohio?

    I found a website for a store called "Street Rods, Parts, and Memorabilia" in Ohio. They list a 23 T bucket body that looks good but nothing else for T buckets. No frame or any other parts. This seems a little .... strange. Anyway, has anyone seen a body from this place? What is quality like? Is...

    Age of my T-Bucket

    Should be able to track down when it was first titled or registered. Not sure how you would go about it. Perhaps talk to your local DMV

    another newbie

    Welcome from Arizona, USA. All these new builds happening, good to see. Do post pictures please. How does building a T bucket in UK compare to USA? Can't wait to join the builders club and get my project started.

    Roll on paint for steering box and gas tank

    By 'roll on' do you mean something like Plasti dip? (which can be brushed and sprayed). I'm with Spanky, just get a spray can or 2 from your favorite auto parts store or WalMart.

    Suspension travel - How much do I need?

    Ouch!! That is not good. If the Watts link is that close it's a poor design. I hope you got that repaired. I did consider a watts link but rejected it. There will be no panhard rod either.

    Suspension travel - How much do I need?

    That was my thought for the rear, 2-1/2 plus 1/2" for a bump stop. The shocks linked to only have 1-3/8 travel for both bump and droop so I my use something else. More research needed there. The reason I need to know is because my frame is going to sit lower than usual and I don't want the rear...

    Suspension travel - How much do I need?

    Thanks guys. So for the front if I allow 2" bump and 1" droop I'd be pretty close. For the rear with the shocks linked to, 1-3/8 both bump and droop at the shock. That's not much. At least now I have something to work with. My original thinking was about 2-1/2 bump and "does not really matter"...

    Suspension travel - How much do I need?

    Thanks 2old2fast. This is exactly what I need. Not too far off what I estimated.

    Suspension travel - How much do I need?

    Hi. I'm in the planning stages for my build. I'm pretty sure I will be making my own frame and some, if not all, suspension components. I'd be grateful if anyone can give me some numbers. In order to get things right I need to know how much travel I need. This is not as simple as it sounds as...

    Finally the body is painted ready for install on chassis

    Sorry for reviving an old thread but... Love you car. Very similar to what I have planned. Needless to say my plans are not going to be fulfilled, I'll have to cut back due to costs. I do have a question. What is the height of the kick in the frame, from bottom of bottom rail to top of top...

    Wisconsin weather

    Moved to Australia when I was a kid of around 5 years old. It was just after the Cuban missile crisis. Not sure what my parents reason was. I moved back to USA in 2005.

    Hit a wall before I even started

    Thanks for the encouragement. In a previous post I said... It's not my nature to just accept the first or even second answer I get. If there is a way to do something I'll usually find it, but I may not accept all the hoop jumping. In this case, the T Bucket build, I'm feeling reasonably sure...
