Gateway Classic Cars of Tampa is proud to offer this killer 1923
Detroit Speedcraft T-Bucket! Assembled in 2012, this badboy "Fat
Rat" is a completely custom engineered vehicle. The Fat Rat bucket
is one of the slickest looking T-buckets we have seen and it has
been put together with precision. This T-bucket has been designed
for maximum interior space, and features a 700R4 rebuilt
transmission with a reversed manual valve body (like having a stick
shift but with no need for clutch), rebuilt Chevy S10 10-bolt 4x4
rear-end, and 1940 Ford front axle beam. The entire chassis is
tig-welded and stretched 10" longer than a Model T and 5 �" wider.
This is a T-bucket that you can actually sit in and enjoy, and not
feel so cramped like a tradition one. Even the seats are full size
real seats out of a 2010 Camaro that have been fully customized by
Wise Guys Seating our of Indianapolis, IN. Mounted on the front of
this rat rod is a GM crate motor that Detroit Speedcraft beefed up
with an Edelbrock Air-Gap manifold, Holley carburetor, and a Comp
Cams mild Thumper - and she sounds beautiful! A roll-bar has been
added as well for extra safety. Fun Fact: This car is featured in
Bob Seger's "Detroit Made" music video! For more information on
this 1923 Detroit Speedcraft T-Bucket or to schedule an appointment
