  1. That Hauler sure looks familiar. I don't recognize the blue touring roadster. The Kookie car starred in 77 Sunset Strip and was a more traditional T bucket best I remember. I think it was considered the beginning of what we now consider the modern T-Bucket. I might have pictures of that car at the annual T-Bucket Bash held at Mountain Home, Arkansas. Guess I need to check on that.

    1. they should all look familiar, I've posted them all https://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2024/03/george-took-photos-of-norms-39-ford.html and the Henway https://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2010/01/ever-heard-of-norms-henway-i-just-found.html
      https://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2024/03/ever-heard-about-last-vehicle-norm.html the Kookie car, is the original Norm T bucket, not this new remake... https://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2021/02/the-original-t-bucket-at-high-school.html and yes, it was the first T Bucket, Norm invented the T Bucket, and this is the car he made when he was only 22 yrs old ... the original. https://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2020/11/another-look-at-1st-model-t.html Tommy Ivo was so impressed, he made one https://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2016/02/together-in-history-and-in-museum-two-t.html
      I've been a fan of Norm since i was about 6, and just enjoyed the hell out of his performances in Disney movies https://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2008/11/norman.html

    2. eap, that one with the Caddy engine it was the one I remember. As I told you earlier I might have seen it at the Bucket Bash in Mountain Home, Arkansas some years ago. I will try and find any pictures of it later but could be longer due to some other things I might have to do. Catch you later. George
