Alloway's Mustang Project
 

I thought I would post this here as well.......

Alloway is building one hell of a Mustang right now. 4.6 mod motor that will be pushing 1200-1400hp. Full frame. Killer Alloway stance. Click Here

As more pics become available, I'll post 'em

ENJOY!http://images14.fotki.com/v336/photo...SCN1958-vi.jpg

Wow
 

Man, he builds some awesome rides!The workmanship is top notch!

Whoa... now that's BAD ASS. :hail:

I love it! I'm going to need more of this car to get my fix. :D

can't wait to see more pictures of this mustang

the car is cool...but the rear wheel size looks like ass. that is a perfect example of too big of wheel on the wrong kinda car....but hey, maybe its just me.

i love it good to see the blue oval getting the high end treatment!
Why too big RR?

I like the wheel combo, sort of reminds me of Twin Stings Corvette. I am sure as it goes down the pipeline, he will nail it.

the front looks great...about an 18" wheel...the rears are atleast 22's, and a mustang cant handle a 22" wheel on the rear. troy's ebay car had 20's (i think) and that was really pushing it. the question was asked a couple weeks ago about wheels being too big...and IMO this is a perfect example of too big.... the rear wheels instantly stick out as gihugic in proportion to the rest of the car.

i like the mix of worked over shelby treatment to the nose, i like the stance, the motor is double throw down cool.....but the rear wheel size kills the overall "feel"

some cars can take a 22" wheel....like the green 70 'velle.... that car looks killer.... but this car shows a mustang "cant" make it work.

EDIT: this pic makes it look "better".... but i still think the huge wheel looks "goofy"

22 inch wheel were?

racerods i agree that wheel too big hope they drive it 1200hp hmm

That's exactly what I thought as well. I'm definitely looking forward to seeing this one come together.

Thanks for sharing Craig! That's one hell of a car. :thumbsup:

I like it it will be good comp for the ring brothers mustang....

I'm with RR and hiwayman, I think the rear wheels are a bit too big. I like the look of big wheels on a 'cuda and a few other cars, but IMHO on the mustang they look out of proportion with the rest of the car. Other than that I think the car is incredible!

yeah the wheels might look big now, but have you ever seen a car from alloway that you did not like. That guy has an eye for stance. Maybe the car is not at ride height in the rear. And I'm sure that those are not the wheels going on the car.

i will wait and decide when it is done. That thing is awesome.

Rodger

let's call it a 20/22

Since it's a KDW-2 these are the possible sizes

295 x 0.45 30.45 tall
305 x 0.50 32.01 tall

285 x 0.35 29.86 tall
295 x 0.40 31.30 tall
295 x 0.45 32.46 tall
305 x 0.40 31.61 tall

If you ran the common - 18" which seems to be the choice on this site
ps - yep this is the big dog one

335 x 0.30 25.91 tall

it's about 4" taller then the above. I quaranty that if you put a 26" tall tire on this car is would look dinky and we would be saying man it needs a bigger tire

Rear Tires
 

In one of the pictures you can read the rear tire size.

265/50-R20

Ya gotta point there....



- Dan

SLO65 - you are right on the money. They are 20's 265's.




Like Bobby told me today "wheels are like boobs, while the stock ones look alright, big ones look really good." While I can't argue with that- the big wheel deal is an Alloway trademark. With two SMOY winners under his belt and one RU last year (Challenger), it looks like the judges tend to agree with the man.

I'll post more pics as they are available.

Have a great weekend; time for Mai Tai's! :D

I think Alloway is onto something and more people will start boarding the wagon soon. Sort of looks like this doensn't it?

for some reason the 'rake' of alloway's car and that little model both remind me of 300C's.....

better get him a little more width than that if he plans on harnessing that twin turbo Ford..I wouldn't think that tire has a decent speed rating either..We all know what we'd like to have, but guess what..no one makes it...I'd like a taller tire on the rear of the Cuda..like say a 345X35X20..no one makes such an animal

Bob what u going to use when u cant get the Mich 2 335/30 any more?

You guy's like Mustangs....

Check this one out! ( i spent oh so many hours looking at the details/ take the time to look at the pics to the end its worth it!)

Lead.

IMO bigger wheels like 22's and 20's are the new trend on bigger body cars. I have looked at a few Mustangs that look real nice with 22's on the back like the one foose did on overhaulin for that dude in the wheelchair. That one was very nice! I plan on putting 22's and 19 on my Chevelle. In the end its all about what u like though if its ur doe do it how u want it.

Can't wait to see more pics :D .

michelin has been very good to us..They are very proud of this tire..say it's the best streetable tire they ever made.. I hope they don't quit making it..I'll get a few extras before they do..

Yeah,

I heard that story on those tires a few times around....Why would they discontinue the tires if they think its the best they ever made??? I'm curious because i really heard it on different occasions and frankly don't get it...

Any ideas?

Lead.

Oh yeah....Car looks Mean i like it! :thumbsup: (the rear view is a bit weird tough...i guess its 'cause of the angle the shot was taken from or it needs to come down a bit from the rear) Colour???

The Challenger should of won smoy imo! :D

That stance is killer with the big wheel combo. the bigger the better. Bobby has always used big and little tire and wheel hot rod look. :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Correct me if I'm wrong. Doesn't the front of that car look twice as long as it should be. Yes I know why, however, I'm not sure of the look just yet.

Hi LF,

I have been following that build also.

But...

The mod to the front frame rails kind of bothers me. They removed 50% of the inner rail (right at the torque box) to make the exhaust fit. I have been watching for any indication that they are going to add frame rail braces, etc... They have done a killer job up to this point, I can not see them just leaving the front end like that.

maybe this is just me, but i feel like Alloway cars all have kinda funny backspacing on those enormous wheels... they seem to sit way to far into the car, and appear as a kind of mix between pro-street and pro-touring...

personally id like to see a slightly smaller, wider wheel, pushed out of the car a hair... maybe then the car would look to be a little bit more "functional" and not so much like a huge toy.

i also personally dont like how muscle cars look "hot-rodded". i feel like they are better suited for more race/pro-touring styling.

again, thats all just my humble opinion. i think Alloway's work is top-notch, and that his styling is definently unique.

i 100% agree with this, the "unique" styling i think is a love it or hate it kinda deal....... while many love it, i dont.

If we side step the styling issues for the moment, I have a question.

Are they using the all aluminum GT block for this build? It would be interesting to see the engine specs.

Heah guys i know how were all big fans of photos heres a fotki file full of them, This mustang just may be as wild as his Challenger maybe lol!!! look samazing http://public.fotki.com/CraigMorrison/alloways_mustang/

That is absolutely beautiful...........wow

I agree. His cars look more like art than they do functional. I dont know what name I would give the class that his cars are in...but I wouldn't exactly call it pro-touring.

More impressed with what they are doing with the dash than anything else. I have always been a fan of sheetmetal dashes. It's great to see more mustangs these days getting the royal treatment. I was wanting to be different with my fastback by smoothing the upper vents like he has done. I have never been a fan of the upper vent on the 67's. Hoping to get the opportunity to see it at Sema. Thanks for the pictures!

i agree.
