Introduction / Overview:
The time has come to redo my page. We will be back in Az on 6-19-2010 after 8 1/2 long years in Michigan. Can't wait to get home and see old friends and start going to car shows. The T-Bucket has gone thru serious changes since I bought it back in 08, as the pics show. A hearty thank you to all who helped in the conversion process, Dean Griffin, Dan Roux, and Roger Farrell. They all made it come together and run like a striped ass ape, thanks again guys. Oh, and one last thank you to Ross Automotive Machine in Lapeer Michigan for the A-1 engine build.

383 Stroker, 425HP, Turbo 350 trans with a 2800 stall converter, attached to 3:73 rear end. Alden Eagle coil over rear shocks keeps the rear end nicely planted on the ground for a smooth ride.
