And for the reasonable wheel size comment......I think you have missed out on the last few years of high end car building and what the market is going toward(almost all big name cars have 18+ size wheels) I could start naming them but then you would have to remeber what you said about cars looking dumb with big wheels
Didn't specifically bash on Alloway's building skills at all minus agreeing with another the car wouldn't be safe for the power; it's a trailer queen. I don't like that big wheel look on the rear on old cars, jeez, sorry for having an opinion. The new Vettes for instance looks awesome and I don't have an issue with the big wheels, but a wheel that big on a Muscle car just looks stupid IMO.

And I haven't missed out on the trend; I just don't like it. It's okay to go ahead and pull your panties back off and untie the knot As to the limited posts I mostly lurk here as I still think Big Red is one of the coolest cars ever and have been into that look/style ever since (racer-built purpose cars that still retain the stock muscle car look with interior and so forth). Sold my 70 Fastback to pay for college years back, my current road race car is a full tube chassis Porsche 914 with a 525HP SBC and still has stock dash incorporated for instance - don't post here much as I feel that car is not approprate to this forum as it is licensed but really just a race car at this point with wipers and working lights

yes you are intitled to an opinion just felt that you came off a little harsh is all. I like all kinds of cars for instance you car sounds pretty dam cool and big red is awesome. I will agree that alloway gets a lil carried away on his wheel selection but to say that all big wheels look bad is like saying all blondes look bad after you see a big fatty LOL! IF you think his muscle cars have big wheels I have seen alloway put 15's on front and 20's out back. NOt my style but I will say one thing he stays busy and lots of people love his cars.

At NAshville they had a Alloway get toghter, with 36 of his cars there. Hands down one of the best builders in the nation, and from what heard is booked for 2-3 years, I don't like the color combo on the Mustang myself.

Alloway is know for big wheels and 2 styles Halibrand style 5 windows and 5 spoke TT2 style.

The Cuda he did is awesome, didn't win SMOY a few years ago. and his street rods top notch.

Default nice!!!

Love to see PT Fords!!!

The workmanship looks excellent and the car will be unique. I think it is very cool!!


The internet is a great avenue for us to share ideas, gain information, and make friends with common interest from great distances. The one thing we MUST always remember is that we should only say in type what we would say in person. Too many people run their keyboards and make comments they would never say to a persons face due to respect and thoughtfulness. Always remember "If you don't have anything nice to say don't say anything at all." If you feel the need to cut down another persons car or say something negative, just go to another thread.

OK....I am off of my soap box.
