Vehicle Description
The problem for many taller people who want a classic Ford T-Bucket
is that they have a hard time fitting comfortably. But that's also
probably why the "Big & Tall" part of the name really has your
attention on this roadster. The interior is built for people
six-feet and over, but that doesn't impede on the classic custom
style and proper V8 power that makes a T-Bucket an icon.
The paint package on this one is thoughtful and comprehensive. The
purple and orange are intertwined in some very cool ways. The first
place you really notice it is on the body. You have a one-piece
fiberglass tub that makes for a smooth background to have the
purple up front that transforms into yellow-kissed flames before it
burns away into the orange. There's more orange on the front axle
and the full frame. There's purple on the grille, suspension arms,
front leaf spring, and rear axle. Even the engine block is purple
in this well-planned build. And you can see it all so well because
it has been enjoyed responsibly over the years. There are cool
details, like the one-piece windshield, Mustang tail lights, side
step plates, wind wings, and Weld racing wheels with the extra-wide
rear set. Plus, while you already know this one was built for
taller people, it never jeopardizes the iconic proportions. So the
grille and motor are set back on the chassis for a good weight
balance and let the front axle lead the way forward.
The full two-tone package continues inside. The colors continue to
be so intertwined that you have cool details, like the purple
seatbelts and orange tuck and roll style inserts in the upholstery.
But the real appeal here is the space it has to offer. The angle of
the steering column should start to really show how this one has
extra depth inside to accommodate six-foot people and taller.
That's a rarity in the T-bucket world. And you still get the best
performance pieces, like a small diameter sports steering wheel,
dash dominated by essential gauges, and a B&M floor shifter for
the three-speed automatic transmission.
The engine has the perfect look you want on a street machine like
this. The smooth firewall, polished components, and overall tidy
setup make for a stylish motor that deserves to be on display. The
angry eyes of the butterfly valve air grabber feed into the
Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor and a high-rise aluminum intake.
It all delivers the power to the 350 cubic-inch V8. Plus, those
polished headers feed right into those rumbling side pipes. And
details like the HEI ignition and aluminum radiator keep this
powerful motor a stout runner. You even get pieces that you don't
find on some others like rear adjustable coilovers and four-wheel
disc brakes.
The comprehensive two-tone style instantly grabs your attention on
this roadster. And so the appeal of this one is far more than just
the added size/comfort for those too tall to fit in the other
T-Buckets. Call today!!!
