Now there's the real T buckets for sure.[cl Were Norm and Tommy actually racing in the second pic? Kinda looks like they're just looking at each other instead of the track. These cars inspired the creation of thousands of T buckets. Since Tommy Ivo was big on drag racing, I suspect his Buick powered ride could have been the winner.
 
Bonehead and ZZ, you guys lit a fuse here. I'm an Ivo-holic, and a recent student of rodding history. (Thanks, ZZ).

So, Sherlock, Doc Watson and myself dug up this article. (A cool site full of vintage stuff, by the way).

I love TV Tommy's title for his bucket, "The Outhouse on Wheels". :D
