There are a few t-buckets for sale in the Buffalo News 🙂

If I had one, it would have to be blown and deep black paint with flames…

They need a restoration. So they still need building. I think they were $4500 which I think is steep for a project bucket.

for $4500 they better either

1. have real steel bodies
2. be driveable, but with 'glass bodies

you can get true “project” t buckets cheaper then $4500… thats for sure
