talking with the wife and....Considering a T-Bucket

[JOES66FURY]

I got the nod to buy another car...now here is the thing...I will have about 6 grand to spend around January time frame.....not a ton but I think I should be able to find something that I want thats a bit nicer than the old Fury...Not to say I dont love the car...I do...Its a blast to drive and is just friggin cool IMO.....And I most likely will keep it...

Anyway....this what I am thinking...I want a hot rod, I want a convertable, I want something thats going to be fun to drive....so this is what I am going to be looking for...or something like it...I may try to find a roller and/or someones unfinished project..so...keep me in mind if you guys are out and about and come across a dirt cheep T-Bucket round about January....

Cool stuff man. As far as the whole thing goes about talking it over with the wife, I totally feel that. I don't think I will try to build another one. Probably just buy one mostly done. Time with family makes it hard to spend time in the garage. Still fun to drive something cool though.

My wifes cool...becasue of where we live space is limited and with 4 kids money is tight....but shes great...and she is trying to figure out how we can scrape together more money so I can get something nice...

I'll keep you in mind if I see anything, but I really haven't seen anything like that that's well done and close to driveable for anywhere near that price.

This little roadster will be coming up for sale this winter. I believe he is asking $8,000. It runs flawlessly. Has been together since summer of 2004 I believe. I've got many, many seat miles in it myself. If you're interested let me know and I'll hook you up with the owner.

Jim, a roller/unfinished project would be fine too, I will do the engine/trans/interior myself (if its a chrysler product I have a good engine and trans already)...I am in no big hurry so that will allow me to scrape together a bit more money and plan a little better than I did with the Fury.....


HRLC, I will let you know, thanks!

that could be a cool ride! glad to see a ford in it though if you happen to have a mopar 383 and 4 speed laying around I couldnt fault you for using that.;)

not january and it is in buffalo ny but my buddys selling a complete old school t 1917 58 283 machined ready to assemble car is in peices but complete and a 48 dodge coupe frame off not done but back on fresh frame $3800 takes both do not think they will be around long though
'
T's are cool when done right butto each there own taste they are cheap and fun and thats the big plus good luck

[JOES66FURY]

Thats a very cool little rod, and for the price it cant be beat....If I save every spare dime I get from now till the end of the year plus my annual bonus I may be able to swing something....I will let you know...Maybe sell the truck too...man, that would be so bitchin'
