    Do it for yourself, not for an investment.

    I live on the West Coast and T-buckets and T-bucket projects are a hard sell for any kind of big money.
    My cousin had a disassembled T-bucket project for sale for over a year, before being able to sell it for a fraction of the parts value.

    geting the parts like the windshield and lights will cost you. check speedwaymotors.com to get an idea of the cost of parts that it will take to complete that car.

    There's a T-bucket kit and parts supplier just a few miles from me, they sponser the annual "Bucket head" rod run held here. I think their name is Spirit industries.....they sell bucket bodies and parts on ebay too

    T-buckets are part of the rat rod, Kar Kulture resrugance, and no-show, low-buck grease, primer and old paint patina are the standard, .....saves alot of time anf money when the goal is "the beater, the better" and you don't have to make a perfect $$$chrome and paint$$$ show-queen.
