    That car over there with the fugly guy leaning on it, the driver’s feet were on either side of the bellhousing. The drive shaft was under the seat. And I agree driving the roadster above would be a questionable ride, especially since at least that fugly guy’s car had driveshaft hoops, a supposedly blast proof scatter shield, and an 1/8-inch plate under the seat welded to the seat frame, which was welded to the roll cage and frame. And pulled apart frequently for maintenance. We had rules about stuff like that to observe

    @Outback was finally able to get reverse image search to work, sort of.
    Bangshift and HotRod have pics from 2018 Detroit Autorama. I'll grab a couple, you can search for more.

    I'm guessing you mean over at Tbucketeers. I am a member there (under a different name), but rarely check in.
    There are more posts here on the HAMB in a single day than in a month over there. I hope you are a patient man......:)

    Yeah, I got a few replies. It won't replace the HAMB in any way, just hoped to reach out to one builder and see TFeverFred's pictures full size, mainly.

    @tfeverfred 's profile page has 68 pages in media and 15 pages in albums.
    He left an excellent legacy of info and pics for anyone interested in buckets.

    I've lurked over there for a while.
    Unfortunately, I can't access Fred's profile. "This member limits who may view their full profile.":(
    They tend to have more of the What Oil/Tire/Bolt basic questions than here, but every forum has that.
    I'll have to get familiar with the search function so I can dig for the good stuff.

    Have you checked out his profile page here on the HAMB. That's the one I was talking about.

    I had not. Thanks. I read a lot of the posts and interacted with him back then, but aside from running across some posts, didn't go back and look at his albums.

    Should just about be enough pics for you there. He sure did a good job when it came time for documentation.

    They're both good places for info.....if you have the good sense to recognize fact from fiction , just like any other source .

    I like it more for other approaches to t bucket things, like adding a functional door, however I've definitely had better luck with how-tos over here.
