Hey ChipF, thanks for the props. This year we are really trying to showcase our builds, rather than just the parts everyone knows us for.

I'll get some more pics up tomorrow, I have a few more you'll probably drool over:unibrow:

lol Doug is the famous Chip Foose`s actual name

Thanks for the advice about stopping by your booth and meeting your big time customer. What a straight up guy. Really knows his s%@#t. He thinks the world of you guys. Based on his projects that he discussed and some of the concepts that you guys are working on these pictures are just a small sample. By the way that AMBR car in the booth was incredible.

I am a blue oval guy as well and can't wait to see this fastback in Columbus. Keep posting pictures. There is no doubt it will be in the top two. As Chip or Doug said the metal work is as good as it gets. (I saw it on the 32 also). You sure won't have to worry about any of the shennanigans they had this year like the body filler fiasco. I can't even imagine a million dollars plus invested for bondo.
Wonder what that does to somebody like TT's reputation.

Anyway, I would like to talk to you guys about a 67 fastback. I think my due dilligence is done. I'll give you a call.

I cant' get enough of the shop pics, I think John Nutcase calls it crack, I call it porn. What ever you call it just keep posting pictures, it keeps us motivated and looking forward.

Very nice work ! I will be awaiting more pictures of this thing !!!

here's a better pic of the brake vent finished. I'll take some more pics tomorrow now that the motor is in and the front sheet metal is on.

inner fender panels were mocked up and are getting put in this week. They cover the front down tubes nicely and clean up the engine compartment.

This is a level I could only hope our shop will achieve. We may have you on paper but where the welder meets the metal ???? Great Job. Looking forward to Columbus and the finished product.

Rumor has it even bigger things are coming. Good luck

Please tell me you guys don't really think that Chip Foose just posted on this board.

Foose has built things in metal that would put most builders on this site to shame, and we have a very large talent pool here. There is NO WAY he just said that about his own fabrication skills.

It is a funny joke, I get it; but Foose has enough credit to actually post his entire last name. Will a mod be so kind as to check the IP of the poster ChipF and see if it came from anywhere near his current location?

I'll bet that the answer would be no..

Tyler,
There was a bunch of posts that were pruned from this thread (for good reason). The ChipF here is a friend of the owner of this project car.
