(941)286-0889 THIS VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN PROFESSIONALLY DETAILED!!! IT HAS BEEN WASHED AND WIPED DOWN WITH TURTLE WAX QUICK SHINE PRIOR TO BEING PHOTOGRAPHED. IMAGINE HOW AMAZING IT WILL LOOK WHEN YOU TAKE THE TIME TO DETAIL AT HOME! OVERVIEWI just LOVE show cars! Not only are they stunning to look at, but they usually have had an open checkbook on the build so they get the best components, top-notch attention to detail, and are kept in show-ready condition by the prior owners. That is EXACTLY the case with this radical 1923 Ford T-Bucket, known as The Yellowjacket show car! It has resided in a private collection, and was built with one goal…to win its class throughout the Midwest! Please review the DETAILED DESCRIPTION and information provided below, and look through the 100 LARGE PHOTOS I have provided. If you have questions, or would like to arrange a private showing, please call me at 941-286-0889. THIS IS NOT A CONSIGNMENT CAR! I have the clean and clear title in hand, and the car is ready for immediate sale, delivery, and ownership. FOR VEHICLE FINANCING, APPLY ONLINE AT: WWW.JJBEST.COM CONDITION REPORTYou just HAVE to love a T-Bucket! They are so easily recognizable to Rodders and citizens alike, and take Hot Rodding down to the basic formula we all want: LIGHT WEIGHT+MASSIVE POWER=FUN. This T-Bucket is a show quality machine that is ready to enter into any local, regional, or National event, and continue its history of collecting awards and accolades while you enjoy driving it! The body, windshield, top, and corresponding hardware are all from CCR (California Custom Roadster) and are in exceptional condition. Top goes up and down when you want it to, and the hardware to affix it removes and attaches easily. You can cruise at 70 with the roof up or down, as it has a super strong frame in place to keep it stiff. The top has no rips, tears, or seam pulls, and is in exceptional condition. The body, along with the chassis and rear end, has been carefully prepared and finished in multiple coats of hand-rubbed PPG Viper Yellow, before having stunning Tangerine Pearl and Coppermist flames airbrushed on it. The final touch is an abundance of tasteful “one-shot” hand pinstripe work done by the one and only “Lil’ Milly” all around the car. The car is in FANTASTIC condition, and is show-ready right now. As stated above, we don’t formally detail the cars we sell, so if you wanted to put in a judged GoodGuys or NSRA event, I would recommend just going over it with toothbrush and hitting the nooks and crannies before polishing it up for the event, but other than that, it is ready to rock! The paint is glossy, slick and wet looking, and is so vibrant that people just want to take pictures of it! No signs of damage, cracks, chips, or even any real scuff marks on the finish, and the striping and flames are clean and issue free as well. The underside of the frame and lower engine shows a few tiny stone chips and marks from being driven 2,693 miles, but there is no damage, and nothing that couldn’t be easily touched up if you wanted to put over a mirror at shows. It has the CCR split windshield, side ties, and wind wings, although the driver side plexiglass wing was broken, so you will need a new one. Hardware is still intact, and it literally slides right in. Chassis on the car is a rare 121” Daffy’s Rod Shop custom built frame which makes this T as much fun to drive as it is to look at! Adding a bit of length makes it track better, ride nicer, handle easier, and look cooler than the typical shorty wheelbase units you see, and as you can tell from the detailed pictures below, the craftsmanship, welds, and finish work are indeed show quality on every level. All of the suspension components, coil overs, finned disc brake units, front suspension, spring, steering arm, and more are show chrome finished, and show ready! If it is not painted, it is chrome or polished aluminum! The wheels are in exception condition, and are gorgeous polished aluminum as well, and are wrapped in tires only a few years old with just 2,693 miles on them. The rear deck cover comes off easily to provide access to the 15 gallon racing fuel tank and Red Top Optima battery underneath. The interior is from CCR as well, and fits the body like a glove, with a comfy seat and full wrap-around side panels for a super clean look. No rips, tears, damage or seam pulls are evident. There are seat belts for the driver and passenger hidden under the seat if you need and use them, and I pulled part of them out to show in the photos. The seat base easily lifts to access the belts, as well as the modern cartridge fuse box and wiring. The chrome steering column angles back slightly to make it more comfy than the typical straight up and down units you usually see, and it is topped by a chrome and real wood reverse 4-spoke wagon wheel, with functional column mounted tachometer and signal control. Dash is molded with the body, and contains SW Gauges for FUEL/OIL/SPEEDO-ODOM/TEMP/OP along with indicators for the signals and a key switch. All of the gauges appear to working as they should and look to be calibrated as well. LOKAR provided the chrome angled shifter arm with push-down flamed dice topper, as well as the functional chrome E-Brake handle, spoon gas pedal, and chrome/rubber brake pedal. Hi-beam switch is floor mounted and foot operated. Carpeting is marine grade banded material over insulation, and looks fantastic. This Rod is powered by a fully refreshed and rebuilt GM 327 Corvette engine that was built mildly to provide tons of fun without sacrificing long-term reliability and allowing ease of maintenance too. Block was painted yellow to match, before being treated to as many chrome, billet, and polished dress up items as you could put on one. From the intake to the oil pan, if it could be chromed or polished, it was! It looks fantastic in the car, and sounds absolutely AMAZING rumbling through the killer looking exhaust system! Wiring and lines were done cleanly and neatly, modern radiator was hidden under a stock chrome grille with temp indicator topper, and everything looks and performs wonderfully. Moon gas tank up front has been sourced for the coolant overflow jug. A smoothed, narrowed, and custom fabricated FORD 9” rear end houses 3.73 gears, and has been painted and striped to match the rest of the car. Same with the rear brake drums, which work without issue. It starts with a twist of the key and a tap of the gas pedal, idles clean and smooth, and has no known issues with the engine or transmission. Snick the 350 Turbo trans into gear, and the gas pedal will take you wherever you want to go in a real hurry! It is an absolute BLAST to drive, and has MORE than enough power for shenanigans if that’s your cup of tea! Keep control of your right foot, and she will drive so smooth and straight, you’ll let your Grandma take the wheel! There is no odd pulling, wander or choppiness when driving. Ride is smooth and even. No pulling, excess fade, or modulation when braking. Tracks straight at speed. It has not leaked, wept, or dripped fluid in the past two weeks at the store, and from the exhaust manifold gaskets down to the plug wires still shows like a freshly built motor. It does NOT run hot at all. Taking it to the beach on a 98 degree day with stop and go traffic never made it creep over 191 degrees. Even stopped at idle for 10 minutes. The car has been driven on a few longer trips of 200 miles without issue by the prior owner, but spent most of its life in a trailer going from show to show. I have personally driven it about 45 miles, and find it to be one of the best handling and easy to drive rods we have had. I don’t kid when I say your Grandma could probably drive this thing, but if you want to get nuts, all it takes is a whack of the throttle, and you can get nuts with the best of them! The car has been stored in a climate-controlled warehouse, and can be entered into a show TODAY, as it sits, and will probably win a prize for something. If you are going to take to the National show level, I would recommend taking a weekend, your detail kit, and some elbow grease to give everything a quick show polish and clean before you go. Nothing is wrong with it, but polishing it up will make it look even nicer than it does. This car has won a variety of awards, including: WSRA BEST BUCKET 2011 WSRA BEST STREET ROD 2012 CAR CRAFT SUMMER NATIONALS MN 2011 3RD PACE BUCKET And an assortment of other wins at various local and regional events. IT IS A SHOW-QUALITY, TROPHY WINNING, JAW-DROPPING CAR. The prior owner spent in excess of $40,000 to get this car just right, and it is probably one of the best looking, best driving Buckets on the market. IT IS TITLED AS A 1923 FORD. ODOMETER IS EXEMPT, AND MILEAGE STATED IS WHAT IS SHOWING ON THE FUNCTIONAL ODOMETER. I think that about does it so far as information I can supply to you.
