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

BMW to follow Honda back into F1?

Mon, 14 Apr 2014

The economic downturn wrought devastating effects on motor racing. Formula One alone lost half its engine suppliers when Honda left at the end of the 2008 season, and both BMW and Toyota followed at the end of 2009. But things are looking up again. Cosworth may have dropped out this season, reducing the engine suppliers to three: Ferrari, Renault and Mercedes, the latter of which admits that it may have left had the engine formula not changed. But Mercedes has stayed and is dominating the championship. Honda is coming back next season. And word around the paddock is it may not be the only one.
According to Giancarlo Minardi - founder of the team now known as Scuderia Toro Rosso - BMW engineers have been conspicuously spotted lately at F1 test sessions and grands prix, lending to speculation that the new engine regulations may entice the Bavarian automaker back into the series. According to Minardi, BMW's marketing division is pushing for the automaker's return to F1, with the board slated to make a decision in May. BMW would be more likely to consider an engine-supply deal rather than taking a team over like it had with Sauber, but with which team or teams it might collaborate remains a big question mark at this point.
As if that's not enough, Ford is said to be considering taking over Cosworth's aborted V6 turbo engine program to take both outfits back into the sport as well. Cosworth supplied F1 engines under the Ford banner for years, but returned under its own name for four seasons from 2010 through 2013 before shuttering its program to develop an engine to meet the new regulations adopted this season.

70% of pickups could use aluminum by 2025

Wed, 11 Jun 2014

In the next decade, the auto industry will see an explosion in its use of aluminum to cut weight and increase fuel economy, according to a study from market analysts Ducker Worldwide cited by The Detroit News. We are already seeing the lightweight metal show up extensively in luxury models from Europe, but with the impending launch of aluminum-intensive 2015 Ford F-150 (pictured above), North America is using it even more, as well. The report predicts 70 percent of US pickups to have aluminum bodies by 2025.
It won't just be pickups that see the benefit, though. The average amount of aluminum in US vehicles is forecasted by the study to grow from an average of 350 pounds in 2013 to about 550 pounds by 2025. The most common parts to use it will be hoods, doors and - to some extent - roofs, as well.
The massive increase in pickups' aluminum content hardly seems surprising. The F-150 is predicted to use so much that it might cause a short-term shortage, according to one earlier report. At the same time General Motors is heavily rumored to be negotiating with suppliers for the next generation Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra. Ram is the last holdout of the Big Three, but the study predicts that not to last.

White House clears way for NHTSA to mandate vehicle black boxes

Fri, 07 Dec 2012

At present, over 90 percent of all new vehicles sold in the United States today are equipped with event data recorders, more commonly known as black boxes. If the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration gets its way, that already high figure will swell to a full 100 percent in short order.
Such automotive black boxes have been in existence since the 1990s, and all current Ford, General Motors, Mazda and Toyota vehicles are so equipped. NHTSA has been attempting to make these data recorders mandatory for automakers, and according to The Detroit News, the White House Office of Management Budget has just finished reviewing the proposal, clearing the way. Now NHTSA is expected to draft new legislation to make the boxes a requirement.
One problem with current black boxes is that there's no set of standards for automakers to follow when creating what bits of data are recorded, and for how long or in what format it is stored. In other words, one automaker's box is probably not compatible with its competitors.
