JUST BUILT! 1923 T-Bucket With EVERYTHING You Can Imagine! Over $35k Invested!

1923 T-BUCKET LOADED WITH ALL OF THE GOODIES! PROFESSIONALLY AND FRESHLY BUILT! ALL BRAND NEW FROM FRONT TO BACK! 383/400+ HP STROKER MOTOR!

We all hear these stories from time to time. A guy or girl, gets a settlement, wins the lottery, inherits a truck load of money, and one of the first things they do is they run out to have one of their dream toys built. Well, this is one of those cases. Approximately two years ago, a gentleman went to a reputable shop and said this is what I want, "money is no object". A year later and around $35,000 dollars, you have this T-Bucket. It was finished towards the end of Fall in 2013. At which point it had to be sold. So it has sat all winter, tucked away in a climate controlled garage, awaiting Spring. The unfortunate side is that even as Spring has hit, it still has not seen much of the Sun.

The craftsmanship of this T-Bucket is phenomenal. The paint and pin striping that was done on this T-Bucket are by far some of the best work that I've seen in quite some time. If you look closely at much of the finishing work, you will quickly tell that this T-Bucket was built correctly. The entire T-Bucket consists all of all new parts. Nothing used was implemented in the build of this Hot Rod. Less than fifty miles have been put on this T-Bucket since it was completed. Here is a list of what it consists of:

383 Stroker Motor With Edelbrock Aluminum Heads
Edelbrock Tunnel Ram Intake
Dual 450 CFM Holley Carburetors
Electric Water Pump & Fan
MSD Ignition, Distributor, Coil, & 6AL Box
Turbo 350 Transmission
Ford 9" Posi Rear End
Hair pin radius rods
Coil Over Shocks
Chrome Shocks in the front
Mickey Thompson E/T Streets
Spun Aluminum Fuel Tank

There are definitely plenty of T-Buckets out there to choose from. Unfortunately though, there are not that many freshly restored ones that haven't been ran through the ringer or patched together. With our T-Bucket you can take comfort in knowing that you are getting a new car that hasn't been on the road long enough to even be considered misused nor abused. In short, there is NO AGE to this car so if you're wanting your very own newborn, you've found it. I will be evaluating all reasonable offers and I will in fact sell the T-Bucket early as we do have it for sale "locally". I strongly encourage anyone who is interested to please call or email to schedule a time to come check it out. I would also like to add that I am usually on the phone from 7 AM until about 12 AM so you are always welcome to call and if I do not answer, just leave a message and I will return your call immediately. I know from my own experience with purchasing cars online, most of the time it is very difficult to get someone on the phone and to obtain the information you need. So I try to always stay on top of emails and phone calls. I do have a clear title for this T-Bucket. As always, good luck and happy bidding!

Thanks,

Shawn

New car market raining on convertibles' parade

Mon, 08 Jul 2013

Whether fitted with soft or hard folding lids, today's droptops are better than ever for year-round motoring. Advancements in power top mechanisms, sealing, aerodynamics, structural rigidity, rollover safety and creature comforts like heated and cooled seats mean that modern convertibles are more versatile and better to drive than ever before. Yet the segment's sales took a dive during the recession and haven't come back, Automotive News reports.
Part of that is because automakers are looking at today's more sensible buyers and simply not developing as many new models, and that lack of fresh iron is curbing sales. AN cites R.L. Polk data which notes that only about one percent of new vehicles registered in the US last year had tops that folded. Back in 2009, it was 1.4 percent, and it was 2 percent in 2006. All-in, some 151,636 convertibles were registered in 2012. That's more units more than were registered in each of the past three years, but the market has also grown as the economy has picked up speed, and as a percentage of new vehicles purchased, convertible sales are lagging.
Thus far in 2013, the Ford Mustang is America's top-selling convertible, with 6,421 units registered through the end of April, followed by its rival, the Chevrolet Camaro, at 4,751 units. The Volkswagen Beetle isn't far behind, with 4,305, but from that point, it's a steep drop off to the fourth-place Mercedes-Benz SL-Class and its 2,380 sales.

EU formally questions French government assistance of Peugeot's finance arm

Fri, 28 Dec 2012

Recently, the finance arm of PSA/Peugeot-Citroën was in such debt trouble that it was pricing itself out of the car loan market. The rates it was paying to service its debt, which was rated one step above junk, were so high that it was forced to charge car-buying customers higher rates than they could find elsewhere. This was adding to Peugeot's already impressive woes by sending revenue out the door to competitors.
Two months ago a deal was worked out with the French government whereby the state would provide 7 billion euro ($9 billion USD) in bonds to guarantee the finance arm's loans. The French government could nominate someone to join the Peugeot board, Peugeot would guarantee more French jobs, and on top of that deal, other banks would provide non-guaranteed loans. The government would take no equity stake in the car company.
Although not yet finalized, the arrangement is meant to create some breathing room for Peugeot Finance to lower its interest rates for customers, and a government-nominated board member, Louis Gallois, was recently named to Peugeot's supervisory board. The arrangement was also openly questioned by at least three competitors: Ford, Renault - which is 15-percent owned by the French government after it received state aid - and the German state of Lower Saxony, itself a 15-percent shareholder in Volkswagen.

Ford says utility vehicles are key to global growth

Tue, 26 Nov 2013

While most of us believe that small, fuel efficient cars are the key to global expansion for US automakers, Jim Farley, Ford's vice president of Global Marketing, thinks otherwise. Last week, we attended an exclusive sneak preview of the Ford Edge Concept in advance of the Los Angeles Auto Show, and Farley told us that it's actually utility vehicles that will help the Blue Oval gain market share overseas. "There is no other segment in our industry that is growing like utilities," he said. "We expect over the next five years this full family of [utility] vehicles to really drive our growth as a company."
And Farley has the numbers to back it up, too. Ford projects overall automotive sales to grow 23 percent from 2012 to 2017, but the company's utility vehicles are expected to boom by an impressive 41 percent during that same period. Much of that growth will be in China, where Ford estimates its utility sales will explode. "The biggest opportunity for us globally for utilities is in China," Farley said. "China utility growth is expected to more than double from where it is today to 2017, which isn't that far away." Most astounding is that Ford projects its own utility sales in China will eventually increase by more than 2,000 percent when smaller crossovers, such as the EcoSport and Kuga (sold as the Escape in North America), and the Edge and Explorer, are factored in.
Ford's VP also expects utilities to lead the way in the struggling European market. "With all the difficulties of the European market, there is one segment that has actually expanded in volume over the last several years even though the market is way down, and that's utilities," Farley told us. Ford estimates that their utility sales will grow 65 percent in Europe from 2012-2017. "The utility segment is projected to grow we think about thirty percent between now and 2017 in Europe, and we think we are going to grow twice that rate as a brand," Farley continued.
