After the Beach Boys did "409" on their own, GM wanted "Little GTO" recorded. No big name would do it. GM found this great small time group in Florida who recorded "Little GTO" for them. Possibly there was a dispute of some type and this group put "Bucket T" on the other side of the single, complete with - if you listen real close- dirty words intertwined in "Bucketbucketbucketbucket..." It lasted about a week on the radio before it was discovered.
I'm sorry but this is the absolute worst song ever to come out of the 60s. Maybe you had to be a real car fink to like this song.

Great as well as Jan & Dean's cover...

The Who did a humourous send-up of this on one of their early albums, maybe " a quick one" or "magic bus" or "odds and sods" etc

This sounds more like a re-make of " Tennesee " by Jan & Dean
