chip foose used to work for boyd back when he was learning the trade, so there would be a few things chip picked up from boyd.

The workshop supervisor on american hot rod is a farkin tosser. That bald guy with the goatie thats always winging about some shit

What the hell?? Boyd Coddington sucks! everythings so rushed, 2 days to prep and paint a car!!

He fires anyone for looking at him wrong and he's got no one to work for him.

Chip Foose all the way!

well working nights and not having foxtell i have to deal with what i can see on DVD etc

boyds cars turn out HOT but yes you feel he cuts corners too much to get them done.. OR they just make it look like that to make for better television..

you cant say the finished products aren't awesome hot rods

-- same with the old monster garage series .. did the main work in 6 days.. but then the is time taken off camera to make them look neat .

54 chevy and the old skool wagon in the last episode.. they are tight

who is this Chip Foose, what show are the cars from.. the Cuda i think might have been rides.. from what i have seen/read before

Chip Foose is an Awesome Car builder. They've showcased afew of his cars on "rides" before and they're unbelievable. Although I dont particularly like Boyd I have to give him credit for hiring a few mentally challenged people (his son is mentally challenged).

Anyhow That 32 is niceeeeeee.

heres some more foose for your juice.

    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
