That surge is awesome! Who cares about the cost of Fuel when you have a car that looks and runs like that "T". If you do you must drive a Tesla! I'll be 75 this year and I still love the sound. In the Spring of '69 (19 y/o) 2 yrs before Two Lane Black Top, I built a '55 Chevy Gasser. Cut off the front frame, built 2x4 boxes frame. Put a Chrome Straight Axle w/Early Chevy Spindles. Built a 60 over 283 w/ 12.5 pistons w/202's and all radical internals. Uncapped fender well Doug headers, it ran low 13's w/Street Tires. It was hard to keep the front wheels on the ground. The engine would rumble and would surge like the "T" in this video. At 19, I had Street Racers all throughout Northern California trying to track me down for a Street Race. Il Never lost a Street Race. But I'll never forget the memories!! Awesome "T". Now I have a Black & White '56 Bel Air 2dr H/T 350 M21, a Red '57 Bel Air 2dr Sdn 502 Ram Jet w/Rock Crusher, a factory Red on Red factory A/C made into a Clone SS with a 530 hp 468 Turbo 400, 9in 4 wheel Disc Brakes. Yes at my age I'm still doing what I LOVE most. Cost of Fuel doesn't matter to us Gear Heads. I would never consider going Electric!!
@@GaryH-pw9cm Gary, Are you a member of the NTBA. I will be in Bowling Green Kentucky June, 27, 28, 29th for their Regional T bucket event. nationaltbucketalliance.com/ntba-membership-form/
I grew up around my uncle who built and maintained a 33-1/2 Plymouth, 40 Ford and 29 Model A street rods. Modern cars will never have the art, culture and expression represented here. This Bucket T (as my uncle called them) is as radical as it gets.
Glad you enjoyed it, Here"s a link to a video with my friend's 41 Willys th-cam.com/video/hU3enFFWo4U/w-d-xo.htmlsi=1hNZ9cJmMwIcKt_r Thanks for watching
Instead of car shows we used to have rod runs where most everyone drove their cars to the event on its own wheels. Rods were less exotic back then but still very nice. I drove my Model A Tudor from Houston to Waco where it and I won the Streetkhana. Later that year I drove it to Memphis for the Street Rod Nationals.
Very nice, Some are built for cruising and some are not. I'm in the process of building a C-cab delivery truck for cruising around. Hope to start posting videos of the build soon. Thanks for watching.
Almost a full year late. I heard Cornelius and thought of Cornelius Or. They do several Big car shows at that High School on occasion. Thought I had missed another one. I got this one thought, Thanks Martin. Neat T-Bucket. A buddy has a 3 Window Ford with 392 Hemi help under the hood. Has won a bunch of neat Memorabilia. Long trips,,well, yeah, kinda. Wa to Arizona for a show, once, lol!. We bought a set of noise cancellers, voice on command, Nascar headphones before we left back,, because blower Insanity and sore throat. Blower belt design change once home. late 1990's. jeez.
When I started the channel two years ago I didn't think about putting the city, state or date in the description. Still learning. I think building the car was easier than learning how to shoot and edit video for a TH-cam channel. Thanks for watching.
That surging my friend is music to our ears...and to the gentleman who commented on the surging respectively you must drive a Lexus,or maybe a Honda.none the less it's all Good..
@greaseballmc > That surging my friend is music to our ears...and to the gentleman who commented on the > surging respectively you must drive a Lexus,or maybe a Honda.none the less it's all Good.. I'd happily drive a Lexus LFA if someone would buy me one.
I forgot something, the Red on Red car is a "67 Malibu Wagon w/ 15x7 Rally Wheels and Red Lined Tires AM/FM 8 Track Radio. This was a Frame off build. Orginal Seat Covers and headliner. Have a fantastic life with amazing enjoyment!!
I was told the car came from a museum in CA. The car was also titled in Louisiana and Tennessee. I completely rebuilt the car two years ago changing the frame, engine, trans, and rear end. Video's of the build are on my Channel at www.youtube.com/@Layznc Thanks for watching
I've also owned a few hotrods and always driven then. But I got tired of seeing the same old classic hotrod, muscle cars at the shows. (cars I grew up with) So I decided to build my own hotrod. Unfortenately at 1.5 mpg and running on methanol I can't drive very far. Maybe 30 miles round trip. Appreciate the comments Thanks for watching. PS. I am in the process of building another car just for driving.
The blower sound is music from Heaven!!! If you don't Iike that sound definitely don't watch any summernats videos from Australia your heads will explode 🤯
With out a roll cage, harness and other safety equipment the car is scary to drive. I built it to show and love the sound of a blown alcohol engine. Thanks for watching.
@@Layznc Have you ever had someone think your T bucket was a Munster car? This has happened to me many times. At first, I thought they were calling it a monster car. Well, I know what a monster truck is but not a monster car. I told them it's a T bucket not a monster car. Then I realized they were saying Munster car like on the old TV show the Munster's. Also kids would say "oh I like your rat rod". Well I would like to think it's not a rat rod but it could use some new paint. 😊
You can't let out the clutch all the way in first gear? You can't exceed 15mph? Completely engage the engine to the load via the transmission! That is a rather simple principle to understand and implement. What is the purpose of your unique driving style?
Appreciate the comments, But there's no clutch, Just a two speed power glide. Like most video's on TH-cam mine are for entertainment purpose. Thanks for watching
Do you all ever get a chance to really drive these machines? Burnouts are cool, but seems that the P/W ratio make them undriveable at anything but an idle. Honest question. It's definitely a work of automotive industrial art. Any chance to let it rip? Of course with knees in chest and little safety gear, I may have answered my own question.
Automotive industrial art. I like that. Honestly I built the engine just to hear it run. Never thought about racing or cruising with it. With a 300 to 400 HP engine they are a lot of fun to drive. Thanks again for watching.
Oh come on man who brings an old Lincoln Town Car and some of these cars there yuck, you got the best looking and sounding car in the whole parking lot
I will take people for a ride in my T bucket but would never let anyone drive it unless they also own one. They are easy to drive but they can get away from you very easy also. Ask me how I know. 😳
What makes them dangerous is the power to weight ratio and running manual steering. You just can't correct fast enough. I also had to learn the hard way. For normal street driving they are a lot of fun to drive. Thanks for watching.
Don't forget to change the plugs there bound to be fouled out .. by now ...! Hit Bro..... Lol.. you need that thing like I need another butt hole ... Lolou might of got 15 mph.. let me guess the car called the snail 🐌
Although I'm old in flesh and blood watching your video gave me memories of my younger days , thanks for sharing .
Thank you for watching.
Sir, that T-Bucket of yours is what a real Hot Rod is. Glad to see you know how to operate that go fast pdl.❤

All that power that can’t be unleashed. Basically uncontrollable. Every one I’ve met that had one it scared the hell out of them.
I agree 100% But I didn't build it for racing or cruising around. I just love the way it sounds.
Thanks for watching.
@@Layznc I hear ya. Enjoy the rumble and dedication to build what you did.
You got that right. The first time my bucket got away from me it really got my attention. It can happen in a flash. You learn real fast. 😲
That's what it came with new.
Nice car and it doesn't get any better than seeing one of these with the proper Ford power plant in it!
Couldn't agree more! Thanks for watching

What a beautiful bunch of cars.
Does it ever idle steady or does it always run as if you're tapping the pedal?
Running MFI on the street gets complicated. I can tune it to idle steady. But I like the sound of the blower surging.
Thanks for watching.
@@Layznc ok I can relate to that.
I had a '56 Chevy many years ago and I really liked the low RPM potato, potato idle. 🙂

Me too but a nice rod
He has the Idle way to rich, that would go away if you lean out the idle.
I agree. That lope would drive me nuts!!
The 174 blower on my 427 W bucket did this when new, but now 7 years later it does not do it anymore. Maybe it is worn out, but it still works ok.

Mechanical fuel injection. its on or off. No in between.

Car does not like slow mode… Who does? If you’re into T Buckets and hot rods, the skinny pedal is probably your best friend. 😊
I know it would probably be scary putin the hammer down but I was wondering did you have it on quarter mile yet see what she can do ???
