If you're referring to Troy's 36, I don't think he's entering it this year. Just putting it on a lift in the Rad Rides booth for us to drool under.

As far as SMOY, That NASTY 70 Chevelle at the Memphis Power Tour stop will be a serious contender if he's there. That car was SICK! The intake and rear suspension looked like they were off an ALMS car.

Got a few pics???

Lead.

BTW, i don't like the Alloway Mustang's style, i can appreciate the build quality tough and will even understand trying to start a new trend in "Rodding" Musclecars because Rods is what he's good at, but i think its mostly the color choice i don't like, that blue really has nothing for it and also, a Muscle car needs door handles...Anyone feels like Photoshoppin' that thing a bit, black maybe? Or even a darker Blue hue?

i just dont see how that cars "rodded"?
Since BJ Cuda its the best built G machine IMO

[LL CUSTOM]

I SEE MOST OF THE BIG NAME ROD SHOPS MOVEING MORE AND MORE INTO THE STREET MACHINE SIDE BECAUSE OF TWO THINGS. FIRST AND MOST IMPORTANLY IS THAT THE MONEY SPENDING CUSTOMER BASE IS MOVEING IN THAT DIRECTION. AND SECONDLY THE STREET ROD SCEAN HAS BASICLY REACHED IT'S PEAK IN A WAY. THEY ARE SPENDING MILLION'S OF DOLLAR'S TO HAND BUILD CUSTOM 36 TO 38 FORD'S TO BE UNIQUE ONE OF A KIND STATEMENT'S YET SOMEHOW THEY ARE LOOKING ALL THE SAME. DON'T GET ME WRONG IT IS ONLY A MATTER OF TIME AND THE STREET MACHINE CROWD WILL DO THE SAME. JOHNSON'S CUDA BEING A VERY PRIME EXSAMPLE. I WILL NEVER HAVE THE PERSONEL FUND'S OR THE CUSTOMER BASE WITH THAT KIND OF MONEY TO BUILD SOMETHING AT THAT LEVEL. BUT I WOULD LIKE TO SEE A TREND MOVEING TOWARD'S THE OLD DARE TO BE DIFFERENT THEME AGAIN. MUSTANGS AND CAMARO'S AND CHEVELLE'S ECT.ECT. ARE GREAT BUT AGAIN THEY ARE STARTING TO LOOK THE SAME. AND AS FAR AS THE RING BROTHER'S REACTOR PRODJECT. I AM NOT IMPRESSED. THE WORKMANSHIP IS OUT STANDING BUT THE STYLE IS BECOMEING REPETITIVE. A SIDE FROM A FEW SCOOPS AND DEW DADS IT IS THE BLACK KONA CAR ALL OVER AGAIN. THE RED CONVERTABLE THEY DID A FEW YEAR'S BACK SET THE MUSTANG WORLD ON IT'S EAR'S. AND YET THE ESSENCE OF THE CAR AND IT'S MECHANICAL'S WERE VERY SIMPLE AND STRAIGHT FORWARD. SOMETHING OF THIS NATURE COULD BE BUILT AFFORDABLY. OH WELL ENOUGH OF MY SOAP BOXING. YOU GUY'S HAVE A GREAT DAY. LATER LARRY
