I had an extra Thunder Machine body and a broken interior. I wanted to use them and after my friend told me about his brother-in-law building a real T-Bucket, I knew how to use the parts. I searched on line for images of T-Buckets in order to see how it should look. Then I pulled out all of the spare parts from my junk box and began to put it together.

A T-Bucket is a true kit bash custom car. Mostly built on a Model T Ford chassis, hence the T in T-bucket. Any engine that would fit or the builder wants to use, usually an eight cylinder big block. A fiberglass body and interior. There is no set way of how a T-Bucket should look. Every owner builds theirs the way the want.
