T-Bucket Interiors
In this Tech Tip, John answers a customer question about the Speedway Motors fiberglass T-Bucket kit bodies, and the potential need for reinforcement.
“I'm interested in purchasing a 23 bucket kit from you but I was wondering about the inside of the bucket itself. Do I need to install a wood frame internally? If so can I use a light weight metal instead?”
Hi, you inquired about the T-bucket interiors and the inside as far as the need for additional reinforcement. If you ordered with the door installed it has a wooden frame work as reinforcement but otherwise it has nothing. If you order an interior kit it comes with some wood that is glued or glassed in but that is for interior panel support and the body is fine without additional support. The firewall has a wooden reinforcement for the column and the floor holds the horizontal and rear panel together once glassed in.
