Hi folks, It's been a real long time. Bought a 1923 T Bucket in 1993, Had a 327 and a powerglide from a 65 vette in it. No hood, only rear drum brakes, keg for a gas tank. Brought it home to Miami. Drove it for a couple of years...That thing was dangerous!..., then took it apart time passed.... 10 years later I picked up where I left off... Hired a guyyyyyyyyy built it as a primer black Bucket with reinforced steel frame within the glass bucket, new frame, 4 wheel disc brakes, no doors, now it had a TH350 on it, much more controlled. Took it to the Turkey Rod Run in 2006, just barely got there and back.... Drove it for a couple of years then decided to do it right, a Proper frame off creation. Steel suicide doors, Steel Hood, Hood Sides, steel lid on the 14" rear bed. 13 gallon gas tank.... That process took almost 4 years and it still wasn't finished. 2012 saw the birth of my first child, so the Bucket took a backseat..... Last month on his 8th birthday, he asked about the car in the garage...... and the cover came off, and the rebirth began. Fluids drained, re filled, Fuel system installed, Engine started and timed, As I type this I just walked in from installing the brake pedal, so it's coming along now Mid Auguat 2020... Next up, Making a windshield frame since mine is based on a 4" chopped speedway 27 frame.......
