One low C-10

This is my buddys truck and he works for a street rod shop called (Alloway hot rod shop) some of you may know them here is one car that they did..

Dustin is going crazy with this thing, it will not have any side windows and the hood will be welded in, the rockers are cut off too. He is trying to make a hot rod out of a truck. I will be updating this as he goes..

Re: One low C-10

Yes, I am very familiar with Bobby Alloways work. Your buddies truck looks like it's going to be pretty wild. Encourage him to come visit us with updates.

I guess that answers those that have asked about the Impala dash in our trucks.

That dash is awesome! I like to see that more and more LWB's are getting attention.

Re: One low C-10

Isnt Alloway the builder of that Silver T-Bird that was around a couple years ago ? If so , that was the nicest build of an early Bird I have seen . If not , it is still the nicest Bird I have seen . The truck looks like it will have a seriously altered look . Cant wait to see it done .

Re: One low C-10

Yeah, that car is sweet. It has the signature "alloway" stance and wheels. I can't believe it rolled out in a color other than black. Must have been a very stubborn customer.

Here's another one that rolled out of his shop...

Re: One low C-10

I love Bobby Alloways's stuff, and I am always on the lookout at SEMA every year for what he brings. I've seen all of the cars posted on this thread in person, and Bobby's attention to detail is incredible.

N2TRUX- That Starliner is incredible. It's even got a Cammer motor in it. The car is flawless. I'm not a Ford guy, but I would sell every car I've got to have that one.

tvblazer78- Is there any way to ask Dustin to ask Bobby where he gets his rear wheels from ? I heard that he has Boyds make them, but I was wondering if they are an off-the-shelf wheel or a custom wheel designed to Bobby's specs. I wanted to talk to him at SEMA, but he was real busy answering questions. I would love love to put those wheels on my '73.

Re: One low C-10

Looks interesting. What the deal with the front end? Looks like they shaved all the marker lights and made a sheetmetal bumper. I'm curious to see what it will look like when finished, but can't help thinking it woulda looked better with a roll pan. Definately some nice metal work though.

I have seen that one in person and it is one of the best that he has built, the motor was over $50,000 and something like 1 of 10 ever built all aluminum big block ford, Big money. He is working on one just like it right now for the same guy, but Convertible..

The bumper looks like a modded 88-98 unit.

Yeah that Starliner is owned by George Poteet. He's a Big boy with BIG money.
