There's an old truism that states, "Less is more." Essentially, when done correctly you can make a bigger impact with well-done simplicity and purity of design than with a multitude of custom body mods and wild paint. That's a stylistic trademark approach we've noticed from Bobby Alloway of Alloway's Hot Rod Shop. Alloway is known for his beautiful custom craftsmanship, so why would he choose to leave a project so close to factory aesthetics? Beginning with a couple of black Corvettes, a first-gen and a midyear, that were basically perfectly restored cars with flawless paint and stock-style interiors covered with better materials, Alloway created quite a buzz. He says those Vettes garnered as much, or maybe even more, attention than some of his custom cars. The real key to the look is to use stock-style parts, but make them oh so much better than they ever were. It's nostalgia-it's the past with rose-tinted glasses. For example, that phenomenal red interior by Steve Holcomb, it's totally just '67 Mustang, right? Well sorta, if '67 Mustangs used only the finest stitched red leather seats and tuck 'n' roll door panels, Daytona weave carpet, and elegant watch-like gauges. Which they didn't. That's also just a stock R-code Fairlane hood, right? Nope, it's Alloway's perfected version of one that makes you think that's what they should have looked like. Touches like that result in a car that is timelessly cool. Alloway is leading the pack in perfecting the past, and it's one of our favorite trends.
