Ricer material? I would think not. He seems to work on classics more, and it is hard to rice out one of those I think.

I hate that guys show. They treat him, and talk about him, like he is a living God.

He succeeds. That's his talent. He's got a handful of decent designs, and a pile of crap.
If anybody ever put my car on Overhaulin' (the VR-4, or the S2k), I'd probably (literally) crucify them *and* the production crew.

Re: Chip Foose is a ricer.
There are some cars on Overhaulin' that are crap, but most are really beautiful.
He doesn't make classic restorations, he does more show car/cruisers. I like most of them, or at least appreciate the work. He has an eye for detail. Most of the bad designs I personally blame on the inside people. Foose mostly works off of their ideas.
I like the show, but if I was doing up a matching numbers car I would beat them to hell for touching my car, but if I was building up a car I want to drive an enjoy, have at it.

Re: Chip Foose is a ricer.

Re: Chip Foose is a ricer.
you call this guy, with this beautiful Challenger, a ricer?
the challenger is one of my favorite muscle cars ever, and i've seriously considering putting my car on hold to pick up one of those...but it's too much for me at my age.
Anybody that has a restored challenger is fucking awesome.

On the Internet they say, "You never get this! You never get this!" But then one day they all met in Cali and they get this.

Re: Chip Foose is a ricer.
Chip Foose is a god, granted he has had to sacrifice some of his own ideas for the show that he is now a part of but if you knew about him before overhaulin' you would agree with me. The man is a legend and a genius and pure automotive talent flows in his veins. Even with all the recognition he now gets, all his talent and skill he is a very humble man. Sorry synchro but on this one I have to say you are horribly wrong so STFU. Whats next, gonna call boyd coddington a crack whore, maybe carol shelby is a cross dresser....

I hate anyone with a garage TV show and an unusually clean garage.

[quote=""lawdogg""]Coddington is a piece of shit. I hate that man with a passion.[/quote]
Me too. The guy really is just a massive jackass. On his show, they portray him as the biggest bitch I've ever seen, who does nothing but criticize every employee he has....which is why half of them half left since the show started...and maybe even more, I quit watching it a long time ago.
Also, you ever notice that EVERY time he gets a new car to build, he ALWAYS does a massive burnout with it? What the shit is that?

You can tell Trucks had my full and undivided attention.
