If you're into subtle, keep scrolling-because this 1923 Ford
T-Bucket is loud, proud, and ready to burn rubber. Born from hot
rodding's wild side, the T-Bucket became the rebellious little
brother of the street rod scene, and this one nails the formula:
big motor, small car, and zero apologies. It's got that raw,
stripped-down attitude that'll make every cruise feel like a
dragstrip pass.
Under the short nose sits a rowdy 351 Cleveland V8 mated to a C6
automatic, dressed to kill with a Hilborn-style aluminum air
cleaner, Edelbrock aluminum intake and carb, Mallory electronic
ignition, and a pair of chrome valve covers gleaming like a trophy.
Chrome Sanderson Lakester headers spit attitude straight out the
side, and Mickey Thompson drag radials out back make sure the power
sticks when the pedal drops.
The chassis keeps things traditional with a suicide front
suspension and 4-wheel drum brakes. No frills, just thrills. Manual
steering and brakes keep you connected to the road-or track-while
the 15-inch smoothies with beauty rings and poverty caps give it
that classic '60s show-and-go vibe. It's part show car, part street
brawler, and all attitude.
Step inside (or climb in, really) and you're greeted by a bright
red interior with a custom chain steering wheel, Stewart Warner
gauges, and just enough comfort to let you focus on the next green
light. This thing wasn't built for quiet Sundays-it was made to
turn heads, drop jaws, and roast tires.
At just $14,999, this blacked-out bucket of chaos is one of the
most fun-per-dollar buys you'll find. If you're after a
conversation starter that hits like a sledgehammer and sounds like
a war drum, this '23 T-Bucket has your name written all over
it.
