For 1 point, identify the vehicle (easy) and the builder (less easy?)

1923 Model T Ford T-bucket, Buick Nailhead motor, 6 Stromberg carbs on a log manifold (more for show than go...Nailheads didn't breathe all that well.)  I believe this was built by Norm Grabowski in the early 60s

It's a T-Bucket all right, but not by Mr. Grabowski

In that case, it's probably "TV" Tommy Ivo.

I never would have known George Gould as the builder.  I never heard of him.  I only found the name after a lengthy search thru the semi-defunct TBucket Blog.  I spose the fact that the car was an east coast rod might have been part of the complexity. I'm used to thinking of t-buckets as west coast or southwest cars.

It was a long search.
