Something very different, and affordable.
Hello all,
I used to be active here as a different name, but I didn't fit in.
I moved on to something I used to dislike, and it's both an easier build, and worlds less overpriced. The new fiberglass body runs less than a grand. The aftermarket support is better, and then there's better freedom in how to finish it.
If this is seeming appealing, then you might goo gle T-bucket. Less than half the cost of a fake '32 Ford, so less than 1/4 the cost of a fake Cobra.
That's all I re-registered to post. Peace out.

And my new SPF was .075% the cost of a REAL Cobra, and gives 110% of the driving pleasure.

I had the exact same thought, quote from Gumball Rally 
I bet he doesn't get the same feeling driving a t-bucket as fast as I drive my Cobra. (I also don't see too many (none) of them at auto-x and track events)  |

My Tbucket inspired build in progress. I built a space frame, used C4 Corvette suspension, SBC, Richmond T10. Pictured is my son. He is 6'2". The seating position is low, legs straight out. I'm building this at the same time I'm doing me Cheetah inspired build.
They are all fun!

Strange that he would waste the time to say,...."That's all I re-registered to post. Peace out"
and end it there ?

Kevin, you can never tell what an assclown is going to do because you're not one.

Perhaps because he had nobody left to play with but himself. A new persona, with the same game playing, only shows he will once again be left with himself in hand.

NAH, He sounds like a lefty, perhaps Anthony Weiner.

Funniest comment was that he thought didn't fit in. It wouldn't matter what forum you join, who you meet in the street, If you insult the people or their hobbies, you will never fit in.

My cousin has a "real" t bucket built in the late 70s - acctual steel body. It was fun to cruise down town. I have not driven it in a long time. But i think its funny you should look into a fiberglass tbucket but then stay away from the fake 32 and fake cobra. Living 20 miles out of town, my back would not survive driving it to town and back very often.

Pretty sure all the T-bucket is good for is driving to Cruise Night and back. Only if it's less than 10 miles, only if you can get back before dark!

I find the words to be overall negative.
Why post this here?
Just wondering.

sorry to disappoint but I am still NYG, i don't come around here much because the site has been giving me internet connection headaches. i think the site messed up my surface laptop.
I don't know what a T- bucket is but it sounds old. I still love hot rods shaped like Cobras but I need a roof, Air Conditioning, and I don't wanna be crushed by a Prius.
BTW, I would post a pic of my new ride but I could never figure out how to upload pictures here.
Damn, i miss Real1. He made the site enjoyable with his cobra BS.
