I had the pleasure of seeing the Alloway '56 in person at the Ford 100th.

No, I could kick myself for not getting the interior.Yes, that's Chip Foose's T-Bird. Have you looked at the almost 600 pics I took? http://mustangsandmore.50megs.com/Ford100th/Index.html ------------------ '70 Mustang Mach 1 - '72 Mustang Sprint - '94 F-150 Please remember our sponsors, Mustangs Plus, NPD, Osborn Reproductions, MyFordPerformance.com, and FordRamAir.com

WOW PURE LUST thats what that car is. Ok I might be alone here but the only thing I would change on that car are the rims.I like the rims just not how tall they are.I'd go no bigger then 16's on it.I have not looked at all the pictures yet Steve.They take so long to down load on. Do you have any more on the Foose T-bird I like that winshield he made. ------------------ SCOOP 2.26 60'S 14.9 @ 90.86MPH 65 coupe,351w,C4,Big Boss 429 hood scoop,8" 3.40 TracLoc. https://mustangsandmore.com/ubb/Fastymz.html

No you are not alone, Scoop. I say lighten up on the rim diameter some. To me it looks garish. Just wrong. But that's what you see these days. I wouldn't do it, but does that make it wrong? No; just to me, not the owner. Gorgeous car tho. To me, that era showed the epitome of Ford style. They just don't get any more beautiful, IMHO. jon

I personally don't like anything more than 16" on older cars. I'm going to put 16" American's on my '57, but that's the biggest I'll go.------------------ Gary M.- 1970 Mustang Deluxe SportsRoof (daily driver), 1946 Ford pickup, 1947 Ford pickup, 1957 Ford Fairlane 500 Town Vic
