As you can see from my picture I have collected a lot of parts and pieces. I have lots of generous friends that have helped me out with parts, labor, and knowledge.

I want to give a BIG thank you to the following:

Chip: Power Glide transmission, Chevy straight six engine, both out of a 1963 Nova, and a rear end.

Rich: Rebuilt the pumpkin in the rear end





Joe W.: Beer keg gas tank









Rob & Doug: 1923 T-Bucket body still in the mold and frame








Howard: 4 wire wheels

















Joe B.: Chrome shocks and gauges





Wally: Instrument panel

Weavers Auto Parts: Turned brake rotors

Paul: Teaching me how to use the tools and the planning of how we will be putting it all together.












Eddie: Showing me how to lay out, measure out and plan out my car. Don't forget the shopping list he made for me!




Hi my name is Hunter and I am 12 years old. In 1969 my Grandpa built a 23 Ford T-Bucket and has driven it all over the United States. Over the years he has collected lots of parts, so I have decided to build a T-Bucket Rat Rod with his help and the help and knowledge of friends. My goal is to be able to take my driving test and get my licence in it when I turn 16 in 2013.
