  • All T-Bucket owners are certifiably insane. We found the legendary "Moonkist" rod that was built by Willy Donato in 1978. The "Moonkist" was inspired by Randy Bianchi's "Sunkist" T-Bucket.

    Does anyone remember the word "gnarly"? Yeah, it applies here, to this awesome "street shaker". Love this channel. Best in the genre, by far. Content, production, quality and presentation are top-shelf. Cheers.

    This car and Randy Bianchis twin Sunkist were the cars that really got me into hot rodding as a kid, after building models.. They were in PHR magazine in 79 and at the first couple of NSRA nats east in York Pa when I was 14

    Darn, I miss watching this TV Show from the early 1990s with my Father.
    THIS (Hotrodding) was one thing that we had in common, as I Graduated HS in 1993...
    Then I chose to join the Marine Corps!

    I’m surprised they didn’t mention that is was built as a companion to the also famous Sunkist T.

    I think they all let Dennis drive their cars because you never see him beat on them. Sure some accelerastion but he never tests to limits or drives wreckless. I don't think i ever seen him do a burnout. LOL

      Huh? You can get kits for dirt cheap. Sure, if you want to buy your way in it takes a ton of money but nearly anyone can afford to build with time and effort.

    This is how a T-bucket should be built. I see so many that dont have big enough tires in the rear, the tires on front are too big, and the proportions aren't right. Either do the late 70s style, or do a traditional build like Norms T. Everything else looks like crap.
