@ questions:

Did you find out why Courtney left/got booted? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

Was it "really" done in 7 days and how many people on the build?

You will see how many people were on the build, they're at the reveal. The car was deliverable but still needed some minor adjustments. The upholstery people were last and were having a tough time. The motor ran sweet, but my cohort on the drivetrain had backed off the choke adjustment prior to the 7 hour wait til the reveal. Thus when we started it, it didn't want to idle. I'm sure they will edit around that. I haven't seen any footage except when we were off screen during the reveal. They introduced us to the lady (Marilyn), basically one at a time on camera. Several of us had microphones on most of the time, but were only turned on during individual taping. Like I said....hopefully my part will come off well and everyone will enjoy the show.....Dad (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)

Very cool. Overhaulin has got to be the best car show on basic cable. There could always be more emphasis on techniques but the people are real.

Oh wait, Brad are you talking about "sealing" my 914 for the show? Maybe I shouldn't respond to this thread (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif)

Can't really speak for ALL the owners but what few I have met were genuinely tricked. If you go to the TLC website you can access their forum and several of the owners are regulars on there. The husband of the owner of this Caddy ( Marilyn) came by during the week to check on the car and was just totally impressed with the talent he was experiencing there. He was also VERY impressed that some of us were there and NOT being paid. Oh yea....at the reveal he mentioned to a few of us that it had been awhile since he had......gotten any (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif) .....but was figuring that night was a sure thing (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) . Be sure and listen to Marilyn during the reveal.......she had some very cute remarks about some of the builders( if they don't edit it out)............Dad (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)

I found it interesting that Boyd's old CNC wheel guy showed up on the show a few weeks back designing wheels with Foose.

That is the same reason Boyd fired him! Caught him doing Foose wheels on Boyd time. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Brad, have your buddy tell "V" that I might come outta retirement (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) for a 914 build, with you. Do you think we could find a 914 owner to volunteer their car (IMG:style_emoticons/default/w00t.gif) ?
Dad (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)

Do something to a 914 that has never been done before say....a turbo or a truck!

Good show. Love to see classics cared for like that.


Will anyone get me hooked up with a '62 tbird resto? I'll buy one and you get it "stolen".
