Vehicle Description
When someone says, "hot rod" and is referring to it in the classic
sense, most true enthusiasts will conjure up something like this
1927 Ford T-Bucket. This fully repainted red roadster shows off why
the Beach Boys wrote entire albums based on cars like this. Simple,
fun, and powerful, with its dual-barrel air scoop and Lake-style
headers complement the light glass body, making this furious fun
Ford feel and sound like everything we love about these
first-generation racers.
Inside, the tan cloth interior is plush and contrasts with the
no-nonsense attitude of the four-pod dashboard and offset
column-mounted tachometer. A thick three-spoke steering wheel, a
toggle switch, and a starter are the only distractions either the
driver or passenger will have to contend with, other than the
exhilarating sound of those side pipes bellowing just beneath. The
bench seat feels snug around you, allowing room for your legs to
slide under the non-tilting steering wheel with ease. Seatbelts and
a chrome filler cap just aft of the cockpit button round out the
amenities you'll find inside this T-Bucket.
Usually, we would say, "Under the hood," but in true hot rod
fashion, this T-Bucket does away with conservative covers and lays
its heart out for all to see. A 350 cubic-inch V-8 GM engine is
topped with a single four-barrel Edelbrock carburetor and matching
Edelbrock Performer EPS intake manifold. Long tube headers feed
into those unmistakable side pipes, doing away with backpressure,
and civility, just the way we like it. Power is routed through a
TH350 three-speed automatic transmission before being sent to the
nine-inch rear end, which engages a set of fifteen-inch steel
wheels with center caps and beauty rings. Fat 285/70R-15 BFG
radials wrap the rear wheels, while staggered skinny 195/65R-15
Yokohamas are used up front to create the perfect hot rod
stance.

This 1927 Ford T-Bucket rides on an I-Beam front suspension with
mono leaf springs and shocks, while a Strange two-link rear with
half leaf springs and shocks holds up the rear. Hopefully, you
weren't expecting power brakes in this old-school ride, but a set
of front discs does an exceptional job of scrubbing off speed. When
you think of a true hot rod, a modified T-Bucket is the car that
set the standard for the industry. So, if you want to find out why
so many people have fallen in love with cars like this, then don't
wait another second. Call today!
