Like vanners, real T-bucket enthusiasts have kept the flame lit for their niche of the hot rodding world since the heady days of Grabowski. Unlike custom and sport vans from the Seventies, it seems T-buckets haven’t yet been considered for a revival in popularity among the hipsters, which means that now is the time to be ironic about T-buckets before everybody else rediscovers them. And if you’re ready to start trailbreaking into T-bucket territory, there’s probably no better place to start than with this 1923 Model T for sale on Hemmings.com. From the seller’s description:
Celeberty built and owned. Just recently found & taken out of lengthy storage is this circa1970′s show car. Unrestored and found just the way it was built back in the day.
