The T-Buckets visit White Buffalo.

Every year, Mountain Home, Arkansas plays host to a unique gathering that combines both history and hot-rods...



The 2011 Buckethead Bash has been going on all week, drawing "T-Bucket" enthusiasts from all over the country to the beauty of the Ozarks. Events include group cookouts, a car show, and plenty of cruisin'.

A "T-Bucket" is a specific style of Hot Rod, based on the look of a Ford Model T. The majority of T-Buckets on the road are generally replicas, since usable & authentic Model T parts are extremely hard to come by. T-Buckets typically feature a light, 2 seater body, an exposed Model T style radiator, and an oversized V-8 engine. Some owners choose to add oversized back wheels as a nod to the Model T's drag racing past.

Whenever the T-Buckets are in town, they take a sunset drive down the White River, which is where we caught them on Wednesday night.
