Chip Foose

June 11, 2010

Adam Carolla, Sandy Ganz and legendary designer Chip Foose gather some thoughts and basically shoot the Sh!T about some of Chips early history and how he started Foose Designs, some of the origins of the Gone in 60 seconds ‘Elenor’ car and much more. Chip was a fantastic guest and brought in a cool car, the Foose Hemisfear. Chip also tells us about the ‘Ultimate Car Build Off’ premiering on Discovery Channel. Enjoy the show!

This blurb lifted from Discovery Channel –

“‘Ultimate Car Build Off’ follows mechanics from all over America as they battle it out to build the most innovative vehicle and win US $100,000. It highlights the incredible design and fabricating abilities of the participants and demonstrates how their creative skills are pushed to the limit. Hosted by professional car builder Lou Santiago and North American Rally Champion Andrew ‘ACP’ Picard, the final project builds are showcased and judged by legendary car designer Chip Foose. In the first episode, watch as mechanics from two garages – Hollywood Hot Rods and Pure Vision – go head-to-head with just four days to transform a mini-van into a super-car. The finished article is put on display at Willow Springs Raceway and the winner moves on to the next battle in Los Angeles.”

Catch Chip on Ultimate Car Build on the Discovery Channel. The show premiers on June 21st, 9pm, with host Lou Santiago, Andrew Picard, and Chip Foose. Check the Discovery Channel for more information

Also Special Thanks to Chip Foose and Tod Mesirow for making the trek out for the show!

    Freaking awesome. I love Chip Foose, every time Ace and Sandy prognosticate about future car values they sound ridiculous. Here is one for everyone. Buy a Foose. Maybe wait 10 years and pick up TItus’ beat up ride or some other star’s down on their luck ride. In 30 years when the guys that grew up on Foose designs have their houses paid off and kids off to college this is what they will want to blow their money on.

    What I remember from the television episode featuring it was the guy welding with 10 pairs of sunglasses when they had no mask at the track
