New guy from upstate ny

[Myfakeevo]

Hi everyone. My name is jesse and i just purchased a 1923 T bucket. I grew up around muscle cars all my life but spent the last 8 years playing around with 4 bangers. Everyone says to me why my dad let me drive his car so I may be the youngest t bucket owner. haha. Anyways, just hear to learn these things are put together and put my own touch on the new toy.

Here are my cars:
2005 cobalt ss/sc (around 270whp)

2006 cobalt ss/sc (around 230whp)

and what you really wanted to see 23 ford t bucket (Do not fully know internals yet so ill say low 350hp)

So i am not biased on rides. I think everything has its place and feel. So thanks for the warm welcome(hopeful)!

Welcome! I grew up in upstate NY. My dad was in the Air Force and stationed at Camp Drum (now Fort Drum). He was with SAC and he'd take us to Griffis (sp) Air Base and let us sit in the B-52's. Upstate NY was my stomping grounds till I turned 16 and he retired.

There's lots of cool guys here and the vendors can't be beat. If ya got a question, it will surely get answered. Oh....... that bucket looks bad azz!

thanks a lot man. yeah watertown is a little far away from me but it all looks the same!

basically i am just looking at other peoples work and i want to do a little modern touch to this one.

i want to get rid of the yellow and purple. It also has a lot of yellow accents that i want to tone down. I thing the monster tires and motor pops enough. I was thinking of going with a gunmetal to replace the yellow accents and also repainting the body with air brush. All in good time. I am married and have 'budgets'.

id also like to replace the coil overs in the back so that it sits a little lower. The rear end is a little to high for my likes.
