Happy Hot Rod Halloween!
We hope you enjoy this Halloween video from Chester Greenhalgh and John at TBucketPlans.com. Chester really doesn’t scream like a little girl, though.
Supercharged, Red T-Bucket Video
As promised in my earlier post about the Crazy T’s of Northern Illinois 2009 Car Show, this is the first in what will be a series of video posts on T-Buckets at the show that I particularly liked for one reason or another. Here is a very nicely done Total Performance based T-bucket I saw [...]
Crazy T’s of Northern Illinois 2009 Car Show
In August, 2009, I attended the Second Annual Crazy T’s of Northern Illinois Car Show benefitting Mooseheart Child City & School. The show is growing nicely and is not limited to T-buckets.

We’re very happy to be able to share with you another tune titled “T-Bucket” by a group named The Tarantulas. This is not to be [...]
Cal Automotive: Fiberglass T-Bucket Body Pioneers, Part 2
It starts with an institutional food service size mayonnaise jar. As you may have noticed in the Custom Associates ad in Part 1 of the Cal Automotive story, interested parties could send in twenty-five cents for information.
