Being a bodyman/painter myself for quite some time now. I like about 95% of what Foose does, not Boyd Coddington though. This is 2006, not 1968. Times change and everyone can either like it or hate it, if you were to ask 100 people on the street how they like what Foose does, I bet over 80% of them would like what he does, whether he or she is a car buff or not. I am just stating that I like what he does for the most part and if I could work for him, I'd be excited to do so. I see a lot of jealusy in here over what gets done and what isn't what a lot of you would perfer done to your cars. Oh well, to each his an her own still. I also stated earlier about the 1 st gen. charger, I like it the way it is now, not when new.

Unlike the owners on the show I am one of the guys that prays that I don't get overhauled...first thing I would do is yank the wheels off. :flame:

The guys at the Kaeser shop were able to talk to Charlie (American Hot Rod, now works for Foose) and he said the cars get basically done in the time frame, but then are kept by Foose for a time period to finish up the details on the car.  Not only that, the cars also have to be available to TLC or Foose for public appearances.

All of this is as told to me, but it seems logical.

That must be a new deal...    Foose did not keep the Challenger to wrap up all the loose ends... .   I know this for a fact because it was brought into the shop i work at to get alot of stuff fixed...   had problems starting, running, being too low, not being level, engine was on its last leg (now rebuilt and in my car), and a bunch of other crap.

I've heard other people have had problems wih foosed up cars. I think his style looks better on new model cars rather than messing up our limited number of classic and muscle cars.
