Ford Hot Rod C Cab T-Bucket VanAfter the fun of making a detailed Ford Hot Rod C Cab T-Bucket for myself I knew I needed to make a similar version for other children to play with.https://www.lumberjocks.com/projects/418923So I started again with the basic Van T-Bucket body though without the rear opening door and a less complicated drivers cabin, bench seat, button steering wheel and bead gear shifter.The engine took me nearly 4 hours on the original toy so this one was simplified, just radiator, blower and zombie pipes with a strip down the centre of the engine block.The wheels are shop bought as are the furniture button lights on the front and rear bumper bars.. i made the headlights and secured with a 1/4” bamboo skewer.The finish is my home made wipe-on-poly.The chassis is Spotted Gum, the engine is Merbau,the roof is American Oak, the drivers seat is Cyprus Pine, but I haven't a clue on the sides.This one has gone to the local shop. .
