JUST BUILT! 1923 T-Bucket With EVERYTHING You Can Imagine! Over $35k Invested!

1923 T-BUCKET LOADED WITH ALL OF THE GOODIES! PROFESSIONALLY AND FRESHLY BUILT! ALL BRAND NEW FROM FRONT TO BACK! 383/400+ HP STROKER MOTOR!

     We all hear these stories from time to time. A guy or girl, gets a settlement, wins the lottery, inherits a truck load of money, and one of the first things they do is they run out to have one of their dream toys built. Well, this is one of those cases. Approximately two years ago, a gentleman went to a reputable shop and said this is what I want, "money is no object". A year later and around $35,000 dollars, you have this T-Bucket. It was finished towards the end of Fall in 2013. At which point it had to be sold. So it has sat all winter, tucked away in a climate controlled garage, awaiting Spring. The unfortunate side is that even as Spring has hit, it still has not seen much of the Sun.

     The craftsmanship of this T-Bucket is phenomenal. The paint and pin striping that was done on this T-Bucket are by far some of the best work that I've seen in quite some time. If you look closely at much of the finishing work, you will quickly tell that this T-Bucket was built correctly. The entire T-Bucket consists all of all new parts. Nothing used was implemented in the build of this Hot Rod. Less than fifty miles have been put on this T-Bucket since it was completed. Here is a list of what it consists of:

  • 383 Stroker Motor With Edelbrock Aluminum Heads

  • Edelbrock Tunnel Ram Intake

  • Dual 450 CFM Holley Carburetors

  • Electric Water Pump & Fan

  • MSD Ignition, Distributor, Coil, & 6AL Box

  • Turbo 350 Transmission

  • Ford 9" Posi Rear End

  • Hair pin radius rods

  • Coil Over Shocks

  • Chrome Shocks in the front

  • Mickey Thompson E/T Streets

  • Spun Aluminum Fuel Tank

     There are definitely plenty of T-Buckets out there to choose from. Unfortunately though, there are not that many freshly restored ones that haven't been ran through the ringer or patched together. With our T-Bucket you can take comfort in knowing that you are getting a new car that hasn't been on the road long enough to even be considered misused nor abused. In short, there is NO AGE to this car so if you're wanting your very own newborn, you've found it. I will be evaluating all reasonable offers and I will in fact sell the T-Bucket early as we do have it for sale "locally". I strongly encourage anyone who is interested to please call or email to schedule a time to come check it out. I would also like to add that I am usually on the phone from 7 AM until about 12 AM so you are always welcome to call and if I do not answer, just leave a message and I will return your call immediately. I know from my own experience with purchasing cars online, most of the time it is very difficult to get someone on the phone and to obtain the information you need. So I try to always stay on top of emails and phone calls. I do have a clear title for this T-Bucket. As always, good luck and happy bidding!

Thanks,

Shawn

1947 Chevy rat rod pickup leaves rubber and smoke in its wake

Thu, 08 May 2014

Cool comes in multiple flavors. One one hand, we have the sophisticated attraction of svelte design and the efficient use of power. Of course, on the other hand there is the allure of being the bad boy and going against the grain. That is part of the appeal of rat rods. Ideally, they are built without rules to an owner's specific tastes, and this widened and heavily modified 1947 Chevrolet pickup rod is a perfect example of that spirit.
Coming down the highway with a bent grille, rusted body and pouring smoke, it looks like the pickup from hell. It backs up the looks with some very impressive mechanicals too. Owner Troy Gubser says that the truck packs a Ford Power Stroke diesel with to 42 pounds of boost that runs out of 8-inch exhaust stacks at the back. He claims it managed 505 horsepower and 885 pound-feet of torque on the dyno. To harness all that power, this hot rod has a ZF five-speed manual gearbox with a ceramic clutch and short-throw shifter. Plus, it has cool little features like a doorbell on the tailgate that operates an air horn.
You might not expect a truck like this to actually be useful, but it has a fifth wheel coupling to haul an RV around drag races and car shows. The air suspension also probably keeps the ride fairly comfy when Gubser wants it to be. Scroll down to check out this beastly rat rod pickup and watch it engage in some diesel drag racing. Warning, there is some NSFW language.

Ford investing $500M in engine plant for 2.7L EcoBoost production

Sun, 30 Mar 2014

Ohio is a hot area for Ford at the moment with the announcement just a few weeks ago that production of the next-generation F-650/F-750 medium-duty trucks would move from Mexico to the Ohio Assembly Plant in Avon Lake, Ohio. Now, Ford is investing $500 million to hire 300 workers at its Lima Engine Plant in Lima, Ohio, to add production of the twin-turbo 2.7-liter EcoBoost V6 for the 2015 F-150.
The latest investment will be used to add a new flexible engine assembly system and renovate 700,000 square feet of the plant for machining and assembly areas. The Lima factory already builds Ford's 3.5-liter and 3.7-liter Duratec V6 engines. The plant opened in 1957, and it's on track to build its 40 millionth engine later this year.
Ford claims that the 2.7-liter EcoBoost will offer V8 performance with better efficiency in the F-150. It comes standard with intelligent stop/start that doesn't activate when the truck is towing or in four-wheel drive, and it's made from a combination of compacted graphite iron and aluminum for low weight and high strength. The company says that V6 engines have already proven popular in the F-150 with 57 percent of trucks in 2014 being equipped with either the naturally aspirated 3.7-liter or turbocharged 3.5-liter EcoBoost engines.

Ford EcoBoost successful because of Soviet laser weapons system expert?

Sun, 28 Jul 2013

Mike Kluzner is a man of many talents. Not only is he the software engineer responsible for fuel system diagnostics for Ford globally, he "got his start designing laser weapon systems capable of disabling the navigation systems of enemy satellites" for the former Soviet Union. Quite a résumé, wouldn't you say?
You may be asking yourself the same question that popped into our minds upon reading about Mr. Kluzner: What do laser weapon systems have to do with Ford and its EcoBoost engines? We'll let the man answer himself. "The same process for analyzing key physical relationships works for what we do today in engine combustion, catalyst chemistry and mechanics," says Kluzner. "These are all part of Ford's software engineering expertise." Who are we to argue?
Ford also employs an engineer who previously designed software to detect damage to the heat tiles on the International Space Station, as well as one who's past work involved particle physics, says the automaker in the press release below. David Bell (pictured above right), global boost system controls engineer for Ford, describes the software running EcoBoost as "the secret sauce" that makes the technology work as the driver intends and demands.
