Good day, the wife and I are in the beginning stages of planning our first bucket build. Looking forward to joining the community!

Welcome, Scott. Glad to hear your wife is on-board with the project - it'll make things easier. I see lots of husband/wife t-bucketeers, and not a few with his-'n-hers t-buckets! What are some of your ideas as you begin?

 

[Jim B]

Welcome Scott! Tell us about your vision. Old school cool? Crazy motor? Outrageous paint?

 

[Scott Gerber]

Apologies for posting in the wrong section, ha! Thanks for the welcome, we are looking at a very basic old school first build. 350/350/350 with EFI, red paint, white interior and some chrome. All the new companies in business now that offer the ground up parts just make it too easy. The wife has taken a liking to the car build shows on TV these days and kept bring up the idea of building something together. I let the idea simmer for sometime now and more and more it seems to be a likely possibility.

Well I started driving my T yesterday, need to adjust a few more things but it was fun kind of like sitting on a chicken crate going down the road , pulling to the left just a little when putting the brakes on , going down the road in 90 temperatures didn't have the fan running all and all I think I did pretty good thanks to everyone on here Guy
