And I'm sure some of the people don't live in houses with garages, either. In one episode the "victim" expressly stated that his hope and plans for the vehicle was "I just want to restore it to how it originally looked.

If it had been me, I'd be screaming and demanding, "Where the Foose is my roof?!?!?!? It doesn't matter who was the set-up person-- spouse, child, parent, best friend-- they don't have legal rights to MY vehicle.

On the positive side, it's cool to see that these people get all sorts of goodies and candy in the work that's done-- the sup ed-up engines, the incredible sound systems despite the fact that they frequently waste all the trunk storage space with massive speaker systems , air conditioning in vehicles that predated that invention, and many other bonuses.

At times Chip Foose is highly creative. At times Chip's extravagant and self-indulgent "artistic liberties" give us a new phrase, "I was Foosed over. Details Edit.

The car's name was derived from Henry Ford's estate, Fair Lane, and sold from until When Ford introduced the vehicle in the mids, it offered six body styles, including the Crown Victoria Skyliner with a tinted, transparent plastic roof. In the model, a V8 engine became the base and was capable of pumping of horsepower. The addition for the model was the Ranchero Pickup, as part of the Fairlane range.

Mercury produced the Cougar from until with a brief hiatus from until The car shared many of its underpinnings with a Ford model and was based upon the Mustang when Mercury introduced the car to the market. When this Cougar landed in Foose's hands, he thought that the blue color would accentuate the car's beauty, and he was right.

After Foose overhauled the vehicle, it did not look as though it was half a century old. A commendable effort. Chevrolet produced the second generation from until and made the car longer, lower and wider than the first generation.

The convertible body type was not available for the second generation. If you asked the GM engineers for the opinion about the car, they would have said that the second generation was "much more of a driver's car" than its predecessor.

By combining different colors and making patterns out of it on the car, Foose made this Camaro look great. Dodge built the first generation Challenger using the Chrysler E platform in hardtop and convertible body styles. The car shared most of the components with the Plymouth Barracuda. Mitsubishi Motors produced the second generation as a badged engineered Mitsubishi Galant Lambda, a coupe model of a compact car.

Pontiac offered a two-door hardtop and a convertible for the model.

The base model offered a 3. Foose selected a plain grey color, making it look sophisticated and powerful. The Mustang is part of the first generation that Ford produced from until With each vehicle revision, the Mustang had an increase in the overall dimensions and engine power. The model had a drastic redesign to its predecessors. The model was the first redesign of the original model. The most significant mechanical feature redesigned was the installation of a V-8 engine, but the designers increased the size, interior and cargo space of the car.

The grey shade that Foose selected for this Mustang was a perfect choice. Chip Foose is one of the few people in the automobile industry that can make the Impala SS look better than the design that Chevrolet produced in Consumers who wanted a full-size car that was Chevrolet's most expensive model until would have opted for the Impala.
