1923 Ford T Bucket Roadster on 2040-cars
Lincoln, Nebraska, United States
1923 Ford T Bucket Street Rod
You are bidding on an original T Bucket that was built back in 1964, with a Kenison fiberglass body. When I was growing up in the 60’s I was always involved with
custom Rods. I always wanted to do a T Bucket. In the later part of my life I
found this T that was built in 1964. I purchased it and did a complete
restoration every bolt and nut was removed. It took almost two years to
complete. The body is painted with a burgundy and is as straight as an arrow;
only the best paint was used with two coats of paint and four coats of clear
coat. Every piece was painted and primered individually on this T Bucket. It
has a brand new 1968--327 Chevy Corvette engine 280 horse power. The interior
is $100.00 a yard leather that was installed by a professional upholstery shop.
It was built on a Model A frame with a 1957 It has a new rebuilt Chevy 350 turbo transmission; new drive shaft; new kickdown cable. It has a Eldelbrock 600 CFM Carburetor with an electric chock that is rebuilt; has an Eldelbrock Torque II intake manifold. It has new front tires and rims; new front disc brake conversion kit/chevy bolt pattern; new front I-beam axle; new gauges and wire harness from Speedway Motors; new fiberglass dash from Speedway Motors, new rear shocks; new master cylinder and brake lines; new rear brake cylinders; new tie-rod ends on steering linkage; new B & M shifter; new fuel line with electric old school fuel pump.
It has 50 miles since the complete restoration.
Can you imagine taking this to a car show, which is a real trophy winner and telling the people that this was built back in the 60’s with all the history this T has. A close friend of mine that works on custom rods and I rebuilt this T-Bucket. The Kenison body is built so much better than the current body that you purchase today and it has all the old school look. I feel you will never find another T Bucket that was built like this one was in the 60’s.
You could never build this T-Bucket for what I have on the reserve today. Who ever purchases this I hope you enjoy it as much as I have. When you make your bid, know you are bidding with confidence that you are bidding on a great T-Bucket. I am semi-retired and since I am retiring to Florida my better half says I need to downsize.
If you have any questions concerning this pickup please call Dave @ 4028902726. I do not accept text message. If you need references just let me know.
This if you need this T-Bucket delivered to your doorstep I have a friend that can put it on Central Dispatch for the best rate for delivery.
I have the right to end the auction at any. Concerning payment, $500.00 paid through PayPal within 24 hours and the rest by certified check, no later than 5 business days. If you do not plan on paying for this T Bucket please do not bid and make it easier on both of us. |

NHTSA releases updated Takata airbag recalled cars list, but it still has errors
Wed, 22 Oct 2014
Unfortunately, the government's list still contains errors.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued an updated list of vehicle models that it's urging owners to repair under the mushrooming Takata airbag inflator recall. The latest version adds vehicles from new automakers like Subaru and Ford that are missing from the original announcement, and it also removes erroneous entries from General Motors, leaving only the 2005 Saab 9-2X (a reskinned Subaru WRX), and the 2003-2005 Pontiac Vibe, a joint project with Toyota.
James Franco and tiger tease Ford Super Bowl commercial
Sat, 01 Feb 2014Ford has just released a teaser for its Super Bowl ad, and unlike just about every other automaker, it seems that the Blue Oval is going to make us wait until Sunday to see the full spot. The teaser is, um, strange.
It stars James Franco, who believes he is Ron Riggle, the comedian, Fox NFL Sunday host and retired Marine lieutenant colonel. There's also a tiger. The vague spot has Franco claiming that "this is no ordinary commercial." You'll note on the bottom right, there's a Ford logo and the hashtag #nearlydouble.
According to Automotive News, it's part of a massive viral effort being pushed forward by Ford and its dealerships. Ford sent different teasers and "vignettes" to dealership employees and asked them to share them on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter, in the hopes of creating a viral effect.
Ford finds flex-fuel engine design plays big role in emissions output
Mon, Jan 6 2014How bad is ethanol for your engine? There's been a lot of debate on this issue as the US considers upping the biofuel content in the national gasoline supply from 10 percent (E10) to 15 percent (E15). The ethanol industry and some scientists say higher ethanol blends show no "meaningful differences" in new engines while the oil industry says ethanol creates health risks. Researchers working at the Ford Research and Innovation Center decided to take a closer look at how a wide range of gas-ethanol blends - E0, E10, E20, E30, E40, E55 and E80 - affected the emissions coming out of a flex-fuel 2006 Mercury Grand Marquis. To see the full report, printed in the journal Environmental Science & Technology, requires payment, but there is an abstract and Green Car Congress has some more details. The gist is that, "with increasing ethanol content in the fuel, the tailpipe emissions of ethanol, acetaldehyde, formaldehyde, methane, and ammonia increased." At least NOx and NMHC emissions decreased. The researchers say that the effects are due to the fuel and "are expected for all FFVs," but that the way that a manufacturer calibrates the engine will affect NOx, THC, and NMOG emissions. It's this last bit that's important, since the researchers found, "Higher ethanol content in gasoline affects several fundamental fuel properties that can impact emissions. ... These changes can have positive or negative effects that can depend on engine design, hardware, and control strategy. In addition to direct emissions impacts, higher ethanol content fuel can also provide more efficient combustion and overall engine operation under part-load conditions and under knock-limited higher-load conditions." So, as we head towards more ethanol in our fuel supply (maybe), manufacturers are going to need to learn how to burn it most efficiently.
