Finding a vehicle that has been around for 100 years is a rare sight; keeping one running takes a lot of loving, and seeing one in person calls for a celebration. Present today is a true legend and a centurion and looks like this 1923 Ford T Bucket roadster we have today. This living legend sports a host of neat modifications and is reported to have been featured in Cars magazine in 1974, showcased in the movie Hotrod, and has won multiple awards over the years.
A star-quality motor deserves a custom exterior designed to spark conversation and turn heads. This 1923 Ford T Bucket roadster sports a tangerine exterior that's reported to be custom and sees a host of brass exterior components, which include brass headlights from Spit Patoons San Fransisco. In terms of shoes, this custom classic sports a set of 15-inch and 17-inch Buick wire wheels to better suit its hot rod styling. The catchy and custom exterior transitions into a white interior in this 1923 Ford T Bucket roadster. While the uber-cool custom styling on the exterior is nice, the interior is a throwback to the 20s of American automation and features a period-correct steering wheel and gauges for a drive feel like no other.
If the exposed powertrain wasn't a giveaway, here's what this 1923 Ford T Bucket roadster has to offer in terms of performance. Out with the age-old performance and in place is a performance powerhouse in the form of a 1957 392ci V8 Hemi motor capable of churning out a mighty impressive 700 horses, as reported by the current owner. The 50s powertrain sports a host of upgrades, which include an E.K 3/4 race cam, a custom brass keg barrel gas tank, and a custom brass radiator. The upgraded performance is met with a host of suspension upgrades which include a custom built frame and suspension by Greg Toreddo of Morgan Hill and a 1937 Ford Front tube axle dropped by Moore of Oakland, 1967 Jaguar XKE Differential, and four-wheel disc brakes for enhanced braking performance. In terms of power delivery, this custom 20s beauty channels all its performance to its rear wheels through a reported Torqueflite push-button transmission.
The Ford Model T needs little introduction. It’s a model that is intrinsically woven into the fabric of automotive culture, being one of the first cars to be produced with affordability in mind, helping shape the industry into what it is today. The Model T served as the basis for Henry Ford’s revolutionary advances in vehicle production, where he popularised the assembly line that is used throughout various manufacturing industries today. The Model T itself was kept affordable thanks to a simple design and assembly process, with limited model variants and interchangeable parts. Additionally, the Model T was recognized as being very reliable, making ownership and maintenance of the car a realistic proposition to many families. Our featured car is a 1926 Ford Model T that has undergone a thorough restoration process and is now offered for sale as a valuable piece of motoring history.
For those in search of thrills, the 1923 Ford T-Bucket presents an unparalleled opportunity. Far from being a standard kit car, this vehicle is built upon an authentic 1923 Ford chassis and boasts a title from the same year. Recently updated with a new EDM and with just 640 miles on the odometer, this vehicle challenges classification—is it a hot rod, a restomod, or something else entirely? One thing is certain: driving this T-Bucket guarantees more attention than any Ferrari, Lamborghini, or other exotic cars could ever muster.

Carroll Shelby was a racer at heart. But when he wasn’t racing, he was frequently found making Fords go faster. That's one reason why the Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 is a model known by all in the car community. The S197-generation Ford Mustang revived the Shelby GT500 moniker thanks to a collaboration between Ford’s Special Vehicle Team and Shelby American. The resultant product featured a supercharged 5.4-liter V8 engine under the hood, with a nice round figure of 500 hp to the rear wheels. And while any Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 is special, our featured car takes things a step further. It includes a Kenne Bell Mammoth 1100HP supercharger, along with multiple other upgrades and unique styling additions. With just 12,950 miles reported, this 2008 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 Coupe is the ideal car for those looking for something to stand out from the crowd.
Some classic cars aren't always for the faint of heart; exotic models require specialist attention, while others need a helping hand with parts. But that's not true of everything. Some classics don't dent your finances and, in rare cases, can even be used on a daily basis. Present today is one of those rare cases, and it takes shape with this lovely 1989 Ford F-150. This classic truck is an excellent example of Ford's legendary F series trucks and is reported to have seen a full restoration to ensure more time behind the wheel or serve as the centerpiece to your classic car collection.
The Ford Thunderbird has had many forms. Despite being a sporty-looking two-door convertible or coupe, the T-Bird has always focused on luxury and comfort, being described as a “personal luxury car.” Having graduated from the two-seater layout to more of a 2+2 configuration in the late 50s, the third-generation Thunderbird had to bring something new to the table. And that it did, with one of the most recognizable shapes of the Thunderbird’s entire production run. The third-generation Ford Thunderbird also introduced many new innovative features. In addition to luxuries such as power steering and power brakes, the Thunderbird introduced a novel steering wheel that could be swung to the side to aid driver egress and ingress. Our featured 1963 Ford Thunderbird has reportedly undergone a full restoration. While the mileage since the engine rebuild is unknown, the chassis boasts an original 73,000 miles. This classic Ford provides the perfect opportunity to experience one of the most iconic cars of the ’60s.
If you’re in the market for a pre-war American hot rod, the chances are you’ll have seen multitudes of Fords on the market. The Blue Oval is by far the most popular choice when it comes to crazy builds, even if many of them don’t always sport a Ford motor. This 1935 Chevrolet Vicky is here to readdress the balance. Like the Ford options, it ticks the usual hot rodder checkboxes: fiberglass body? Check. Chopped roof? Check. Custom rims? Check. Big V8 powerplant? Check. Our featured car is more than just a car at this point. It’s a work of art. And, it could be yours, with just 6,500 miles reported running on the new engine.
In the realm of car customization, the philosophy of "more" doesn't always equate to "better." A multitude of options exists for exterior, interior, and performance modifications, yet it's the delicate balance of these elements that culminates in a custom project perfected. If you're in search of a project that turns heads without veering into excess, feast your eyes on this 1941 Willys Americar Coupe Pro Street Hot Rod build showcased today.
