I think he was on an infomercial trying to sell some sort of nonnutritive cereal varnish...not sure

Only one guy knows for sure, the owner. Whatever the reason, he is the only guy that has to be happy with it.

Ummgawa I think we need a group hug here. :lol:

Hey the guy has a right to do what ever he wants with the car it's his.
My point is that the car has only a hundred miles since completed that is what the ad says.
That car was in bad shape I don't think that he even with unlimited resorces
could have come up with a car like that. I think that car was one of the few with EFI.The rear view cameras the flames the radio set up was un real. They really tryed to take it to an other level. the flames in the valve covers. Autograph by Chip, Your friend helped to pull this off for you and still only a 100 miles!
Come on! He can do what he wants with his car but he is not a car guy!!
Maybe it was'nt even his. A set up maybe?
The hole thing sounds like he will have more fun at Barrett Jackson rubbing elbows with Goldberg and all the other stars drinking merlot.
Jody I know your cars from your web site and you have sold them but it is different don't you think. I would think that you enjoyed your cars before you sold them plus this guy was trying to build something to keep. It does not sound like he did.

I think I remember in the show that he was saying he was doing some sort of work with a production company. I'm thinking he does need the money. Besides, it's his car to sell. Should I care? Nope. I still wish my neighbor didn't sell his mustang, but he did. Doesn't really matter to me any. Does Charlie have any right to sell Thrasher or Malitude? Sure. They're his cars. He can do what ever he wants with them. I see it as a good thing that the Overhaulin car is on the block. You finally get to see what it's worth. Cars come and go. I just wish I could buy it and take those damn monitors out of the headrest!!!!

I met Ian at Super Chevy in May, That was the 1st time he had driven the car. When I asked him, he said that it had taken that long to fix all the problems with the car. He was not happy with the way it had turn out. He was looking to build another one. Maybe he is selling it to bank roll his next project. He seemed like a car guy to me. :thumbsup:

I would add some pics if I knew how

That's cool, and it makes sense. Not that I am happy to hear he had trouble with the car, but one part of the show that is never mentioned is the fact that it often takes months and months of headaches to flogged out the bugs in a complicated build like this. That makes me feel better about the builds that there really is the balance on the other side.

Was his ex-wife with him? I'd like to meet her. :unibrow:

Jeff it is fully cool. Just Cabin fever settin in!! Santa Clause is has been asked to drive to Texas at the drop of a hat so I'd better warm up the sleigh. Drive down and back in two days, 755 miles one way.:thumbsup:

According to IMDB, as of 2004 he is working part-time as a quality control specialist for the State of California Judicial system. http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0005575/

I'd sell it too. :_paranoid

I wouldn't really want a car built by Foose, Boyd, Trepanier, Steilow, etc... I want a car built by ME, the way I want it.

Sure, I love those cars, but I've never yet seen a custom built car built that didn't have anything I wouldn't change... and the fact it was "built by Foose" is what makes it valuable. As soon as you start changing things, it's no longer a "Foose" built car.

I'd get pretty sick of hearing people talk about how I "ruined" a Foose-mobile by changing nearly everything... so I'd sell it to someone who's going to appreciate it as a Foose car, and I'd use the money to build one how I want it.
