I was looking around for a good T bucket forum. So I thought I would come check it out. I am building my first T and it is going together slowwwly....... But will get done!

Right now I have

Sprint 23t body
Ron Pope drop axle kit for ford spindle setup.
Speedway forged spindles
401 Nailhead/ Turbo 400 (for nailhead)
12 Bolt
Square tube frame. (ready to be mocked up to be buick powered)

Sound like a man on a mission. What look are you going for classic or street rod?

Welcome and KUDOS for using a Nailhead!

My Goal is more of a classic T but make it a bobtail. Goal is

Black Exterior
Red upholstry
Red steel wheels in rear with dog dish and a trim ring
gasser style spoke wheels up front with disk brakes
Wide whites front and rear.
Motor will be red/polished aluminum (Dual quad 401 nailhead)
Not sure on radiator shell I think maybe a 32 ford (cut down to fit my liking)

I like to drive my cars but also love the details.... So no ratrod for me.

I am a Buick guy so the nailhead is a perfect way to stick with the marque I like.
