As usual, excellent attention to detail. However, I don't like the colors, the wheels, the green engine, the stripes. I remember the episode and I think Chip is an awesome artist, both on paper and on cars...obviously, he is a multi-millionaire due to his talents. However, I wouldn't want him to do any of my cars...or anyone else for that matter, unless I could direct he entire project. Then I would get the exact car I wanted.
The interior of that car is proof that Chip Foose isn't really the design genius he's made out to be. I'm sure new wheels, seats, door panels and headliner would go far to making that car better.
New seats, door panels and headliner would fix the interior, but those stripes are painted on. That's going to make for a lot of work to fix that problem.
LOL, needed more fan and rad :kneeslapper:=Low miles. Not enough for a full shakedown.
i wonder if they had a "no sale" agreement for "X" number of years. It seems at least 4 years old now.
No telling which one but it was definitely a FEAR that kept that @25 miles or was the speedo discoed?
Wow... shocked at the mileage too... I put well over 100 miles just cruising my old C10 today.
That car would have had 1,000 miles on it the first weekend I had it back. 4 years? It would probably have at least 9-10K if it were mine by now.
I actually spoke with the shop manager of Chip's shop at a car show last month, and he implied Chip was more "hired help" on the show, than actually running it...
I usually like his wheels, but those are hideous and the seats are junk, in fact they look like they came from the flea market next to the $29 stereos. The rest of the car isn't bad.
