It's a pretty good guide to keep you in step. I have recommended it to some customers.

Jerry Hughes

I used your plans as a guild and modified where I needed.

This set of plans gave me the info and confidence to make a very fun car. I highly recommend anyone read these plans because you are going to learn something valuable for sure.

I built my t-hot after that in Sweden.

I downloaded this plan roughly 6 years ago. (It is 2020 now). I admit that as a mechanical engineer, I have not followed the plans to a “T”. Also, I am building an 1929 MODEL ‘A’ Roadster Truck, not a “T” as you’ll see in my pics. This plan is a great starting point for your project weather you’re building a car, truck, etc. I like the drawings, reminds me of old-school ways of doing things. This is the way I still do things in my own garage. My frame is not tapered. My frame is much wider than the plans. But the basic building blocks are the same. My wife bought my all of the videos the following year for Christmas. This was very helpful. I would say that once you get a bit into the depth of your project, you’ll actually find the videos to be more helpful than the plans. But they cost money, plans do not. Any reasonably mechanically inclined individual will be able to adapt the free plans to their project with no problems.

it was a 4 year project (mostly in the winter here in canada ) wish i had these plans about 40 years ago. things always got in the way (life) since i am in my 70's it was a lot of fun and nerve racking. also a lot of fun driving something i actually made. starting to think about another project. as they say, the biggest problem is getting started thanks for all the insperation lyle

Good read for the novice to get an idea of what goes into a T-bucket frame. Many of the fabbed parts shown are now available from Speedway and others.

Mike Fuhringer

Thank you Ron for sharing your plans. Enjoy your ride up in T-Bucket Heaven. You just can't beat FREE plans, and they will come in very handy for my project.

J Campbell

Have to admit, did not use your plans to build a T, used techniques and design ideas to size them up for a full fender Model A with a 425 Buick Nailhead. Plans were a great help to a novice builder on creating taper in the frame rails, Spindle modification, adding cross members and making mounting brackets as well as building a frame that was level and square. A great help guys and greatly appreciated, couldn't have done it without your help. My Model A Coupe Build---- " https://chevelle406.wordpress.com/ " Last Update June 27, 2017. Thanks for the help guys.

Plans were great and the project is now finished. In hindsight i would have extended the chassis as I had a few issues getting the V8 engine Radiator and Fan to fit. ended up using two electric fans and no blade. Great chassis for everything else.

John Mathews

Yes I used your plans and I took 16 in out of the length and started building custom golf carts you can see in the pictures that we took second place with full size T buckets

james james nelson

yes you may ask. i did end up building a t- bucket with some mods of my own, i drove it for 4 yrs until some buddy made me a offer i could not re fuse.

I've built several "T" roadsters using information from Sizemore's Car Craft plans, Kirby's T build in Argus's "How to Build a Street Rod, R & C's T bucket issue, and Youngster's plans. I think if I was back to being a beginner; Young's plans would be a great basis to get going on a build.

Hot Rod magazine did a story on how they built an inexpensive T-Bucket. After reading it my brother and I decided we could do it for less. We downloaded the plans and went about looking for the other parts as low buck as possible . We accomplished it for way less than the magazine said we could. Car drives like a go cart. Awesome car. Fast and safe. Thanks

I have used the basic t bucket design in three of my custom one of a kind hot rods and these plans have been really help full in my custom frames

Rick

I haven't built a full size one, but I used it as a guide to build a 2/3s scale for my grandson. 78" wheel base. Built my own 5" drop front axel, complete with radius bars. Learned a lot on frame construction. Maybe grandpas will try a full size one some day. If only speedway could lower prices a little for seniors. Plans were excellent, simple back to basics. I highly recommend these to novices, and professionals. As you die when you do not learn from others
