Vehicle Detail
You are bidding on my 1925 FORD T BUCKET ROADSTER. I built this car. It uses a '26 SPEEDWAY chassis , MAS fiberglass body with a stretched fiberglass bed. Black upholstery. Disc front brakes with rear drum brakes. Rear end is a 9" ford posi. 350 SBCHEVY with .030 overbore, with camel hump heads and 202 valves, big hydraulic cam with edlebrock performer intake and double pumper holley carb. MSD billet distributor. NOISY GEAR DRIVE and big obnoxious yellow hood scoop. The aluminum 32 ford radiator was installed last september just before the Outkasts show in Mitchell S.D. Turbo 350 trans and b&m converter. All steel-braided fuel and trans cooler lines. Mostly stainless fasteners on this car. Has remote trans filter. Electric fuel pump. Rock Valley stainless fuel tank. Polished finned aluminum engine oil pan. Bias ply wide whitewalls on Chrome American Racing wheels. Vintage CAL CUSTOM valve covers. Painless wiring harness , lokar shifter. 1950 Pontiac taillights.This is a ready to drive car. It is currently licensed and insured in South Dakota. It has a South Dakota title. I have driven this car from Sioux Falls to Mitchell and back 2 summers in a row as well as many cruises around town. Sioux Falls Mayor paraded in this car in the 2009 4TH of JULY parade. 1979 FORD CHROME YELLOW PAINT. Frame, suspension, front and rear axles are powder-coated. I installed a new battery last september just before the Outkasts Car club show in Mtchell. Storage and battery box under the seat. Floorboard is super strong with 2 sheets of laminated 3/4"plywood. There is also storage area under the deck lid for wax and whatever. The deck lid is quick pinned for easy removal and has a surf board fin on it. Man , I love this car.............................. This car is eye catching and FAST. Very loud and obnoxious and a BLAST TO DRIVE! I hate to sell it but it has got to go. I have driven this car just over 1100 miles since I built it. The speedometer had 201 miles on it when installed. The car has a broken right headlight lens. I have clear silicone on it. The speedometer bounces and at times does not work. This car runs and drives, needs nothing other than the headlight lens and maybe the speedo cable if you care to fix it.It doesn't keep the car from being enjoyed. Uses 92octane gas. Fastest illegal pass on the street last summer on a 1/4 mile stretch of s.Western Ave was 92mph with driver and 1 rider measured with a hand held Garmin unit. I love this car and hate to part with it....But it is time for someone else to enjoy it. I am not taking best offers. The minimum bid price is what it will take to purchase the car.

Who is gonna buy my hot rod????? I hate to part with it and am having second thoughts about it. But I am gonna let it go!!! You can't build one like this for $8500. This is not a Total Performance Kit that looks like all the other t buckets you see running around. This is a one of a kind, well built, drive it anywhere ( as long as it is not raining) hot rod! When you pull up by another T bucket with this car, this car stands out. Because it doesn't look like a cookie cutter kit car!. This car is screaming BUY IT NOW!!!! Don't let this one slip away!! CAUTION! This car is scary fast. It is obnoxiously loud and a blast to drive. I have had this car over 100mph on I90 several times. That is riding on the edge of death...cheating the reaper.. a real adrenaline rush!! There is no other rush like speed!!! This will light up the tires at every light. If you want something cool.... BUY IT NOW!! Thanks! Bob
