Model Ts were hot-rodded and customized from the 1920s on, but the
T-bucket was specifically created and named by Norm Grabowski in
the 1950s.[citation needed] This car was named Lightning
Bug,[citation needed] better known as the Kookie Kar, after being
redesigned by Grabowski and appearing in the TV show 77 Sunset
Strip, driven by character Gerald "Kookie" Cookson. The exposure it
gained led to numerous copies being built. A genuine T-bucket has
the two-seater body of a Model T roadster (with or without the
turtle deck or small pickup box), this "bucket"-shaped body shell
gives the cars their name. A Model T-style radiator is usually
fitted, and even these can sometimes be barely up to the task of
cooling the large engines fitted. Windshields, when fitted, are
vertical glass like the original Model T.Today, T-buckets remain
common. They generally feature an enormous engine for the size and
weight of the car, generally a V8, along with tough drivetrains to
handle the power and large rear tires to apply that power to the
road. The front wheels are often much narrower than the rear wheels
and are often motorcycle wheels.
