Fast forward to about 30 days ago I decided to thrash this car together as I was getting tired of missing out on some good cruise time year after year.
I decided that I needed to get this thing on the road in 30 days or put it aside for awhile while I attend to other parts of life. I spent every single day out in the garage from the time I got home until I couldn't stay awake anymore but it paid off (I think).
I drove it for the first time on Saturday and besides a bit of squeak and rattle everything seemed to go just fine. I have some tuning to do and some NVH work but its up and going and I can enjoy it.
Anyway, on to the (large amount of) pics!

ReplyDeleteLooking good! I'm glad you got to finally enjoy all the hard work. Looks KILLER!
I like the result!
ReplyDeletemuch better as the former T-Bucket ever
might have become.....
I am glad that there was no good old
car that had "to die" for this project.
So many restoreable historic cars had been disassembled even in recent time for such
projects. (things were different in the
50's when a ModelA was some 25years old junk)
This car looks really good, and it is built
for using it and for having fun with it!
That is as it should be! much better
than every polished piece of art that is
not really driveable..... Have lots
of fun with it! and I'm sure you will
find a good solution for all the parts that
remained after this conversion!
