1934 Ford Tudor built by Danny Eichstedt in the 70s

 

You’d think that after driving 4000+ miles with his knees near his chin on the 1971 Street Rod Nationals trip that Danny’s next hot rod would be a study in comfortable cruising. You would be wrong.

For his follow up to the Leg Show, Danny would be found in what was probably the lowest chopped and sectioned 1934 Ford sedan that had ever been seen before on the street.

I guess you could say that Danny had gotten used to limbering up and making various odd physical adjustments to enjoy cruising in his creations.

Sometimes stating the obvious is witty in itself, such as Danny Eichstedt’s way chopped and sectioned black ’34 sedan,which was incredibly low, especially in contrast to his previous tall-topped “Leg Show” T-bucket

To me, Danny Eichstedt’s Leg Show T-Bucket is one of the most influential T-Buckets ever built. Its dramatic appearance was responsible for capturing the attention of untold thousands of yet-to-be hot rod builders back in the 1970s and setting them on the path to building and/or owning their own T-Buckets.
