T-Bucket
T-BucketHot Rod Engineering in 1:5 scale
A T-Bucket lives from its mechanics. Open frame, exposed axles, a mighty V8, and just as much bodywork as absolutely necessary. We wanted to transfer exactly this character to 1:5 scale.
The ScaleMonkey T-Bucket was designed based on the original plans from California Custom Roadsters. Not only do the proportions follow the full-size original – we also deliberately take a different path with materials and manufacturing than in classic RC modelling.
The frame is made from steel profiles and is welded. Chassis components are specifically designed and manufactured for the model, and the bodywork is classically made from fiberglass. At the center sits, upon request, a real 44 cc V8 four-stroke engine, for which we have developed numerous components ourselves.
The result is not a finished model that makes every decision for you. The T-Bucket is an extraordinary technical basis for modellers who want to build, tune, and give their vehicle its own character.
A hot rod, after all.
Just five times smaller.
