T-Bucket fanatic since 1957 when my 8 year old eyes became glued to a full page LIFE magazine photo of Norm Grabowski in the wildest hot rod I had ever seen! I later discovered the fascinating T-Buckets of TV Tommy Ivo, Marty Hollmann, Bob Johnston and Ed “Big Daddy” Roth’s T-Bucket inspired Outlaw. I was hooked for life on T-Bucket hot rods!
TBucketPlans.com originated in 2005 as a personal blog extolling the virtues of T-Buckets. In 2009 I blogged about Chester Greenhalgh, the "how to" genius who wrote the legendary, out-of-print “How to Build a T-Bucket Roadster for Under $3000”. That led to a friendship with Chester and our partnership in marketing the updated eBook version of his T-Bucket building bible. The T-Bucket fire burns stronger and stronger.

At the age of 91, Gene Winfield has been the “Energizer Bunny” of customizers, traveling everywhere doing demonstrations, signing autographs and inspiring thousands. Among thousands of custom accomplishments, Gene did the bodywork and paint on the famous Tognotti King T. But now he needs our help. While in Finland, on a car show tour of Europe, […]

This past weekend I was in SoCal and among other T-Bucket activities took in the 7th Annual Galpin Car Show, one of the biggest shows in the San Fernando Valley. The show is pretty awesome with not only rods and customs, but tons of exotics, Shelbys galore and a huge variety of modified VWs. But […]

From time to time, I hear people say “You can’t really call a 1926/27 T a T-Bucket.” But I say you can. And here’s why. Somebody will see a 1926 or 1927 T roadster like Stan Johnson’s beauty I had the pleasure of seeing again in Wisconsin this weekend and say, “That’s a T modified […]

The Larry Ryan T-Bucket isn’t likely to be found in the annals of T-Bucket history. But for me it deserves a special place because it really caught my attention when it appeared in the October, 1961 issue of Rod & Custom magazine. At the time I’d already been bitten hard by the Grabowski and Ivo […]

I’m a huge fan of the Butcher Truck C-Cab built by Dan Woods. 45 years ago, Bob Reed’s Country Butcher Shop C-Cab was a spectacular study in contrasts. With a custom built interpretation of a boxy 1909 Ford Model T light delivery car mounted on the street rod equivalent of a sophisticated Formula One race […]

Having a dream hot rod is one thing, but having a fun, practical hot rod you built yourself for almost nothing and drive the snot out of is another thing altogether. Brad Masterson accomplished that when he wanted to reduce the cost of his daily commute and make it less boring. Brad’s solution took an unconventional […]

Russ Freund’s T roadster is so well-done, so right for the time and so downright cool that it’s certain to get significant coverage by the hot rod print media. But there are two things about this terrific T that loom large from my perspective …

I’m reposting this past Don Garlits story, because I’ve had something come up on short notice that takes me to Florida this week and I’m making a point of visiting the Don Garlits Museum of Drag Racing. Following the visit, I plan to do a further update because I know this is of interest to […]
