Would you want your current project "Overhauled"?
 

All this talk of "Overhaulin'" got me wondering if I'd want someone to do that to me, and my Camaro.

Probably not.

Although I'd love to be able to execute my plans with the skill and talent they have on the show, I'd still just want what I have on the drawingboard already. I'd be in there telling Chip what to do next.

Besides that, if my car turned up missing, I'd be more likely to be featured on "Cops", because some serious ass-kicking going on. Most of these people seem pretty sane, but I'd freak out- big time.

So how about you guys?

Sure if for no other reason to get the rust fixed. That would give me a much nicer car to start my planned mods with. :_paranoid ;)

Well, they could overhaul my truck, but just leave my 69 alone please. :D

Umm how about no. :D

No thanks :D

They could do my '70 El Camino project I'm trying to sell. Say what you want about me when I try to sell it for $80,000 instead of $800 I'm asking, but I'd take it :D

I wouldn't let them near either of my '69s.

I'd maybe let them near my '95 wagon, but only if they promised no TVs, No custom stereo, No wheels bigger than 18", and no gaudy graphics... in fact, they could just buy me a set of wheels and that would be good enough :lol:

Thats an easy one for me....NO! They wouldnt want my car anyway, it is almost completley stock and will be completley stock sometime soon I hope. If they did take my car, I'm sure that they would modify it..... and I would take no prisoners. Do you know how long it took me to find an original mint condition green tip dipstick? ha ha

I'm with Scott though, they can have my truck. I'm itching to tweak it a bit. I just hope that they don't miss their exit off the freeway and end up on pimp my ride instead.....

Hell yes!!!.

If you have been looking at the show they have an insider that tells Chip what the mark likes. HMMM 14" 6 piston front brakes, 13" 4 piston rear Fast efi for my 540 please sequential with a MSD crank trigger, Custon dash with auto meter gauges, gear venders od,yes please call Marcus at SCS for the suspension,all rust gone bead blasted, power coated frame, leave the borla SS exhaust in but new SS header 2 1/4, Vintage air ac, smooth the fire wall, roll the fender lips,hydroo boost,Wilson elbow,106mm TB, please repaint with the Phanton Blue color but make the strips have ghost flames.
Oh please take my Pro ratchet shifter and make it look at home in the stock consol, tires and wheels HMM one off Foose big enogh to clear the brakes and the tires at least 335 rear and 285 front. Killer am/fm cd no TV and a yes alarm, Hmm no door handels, Stock looking interior but make it out off black lether, call jody for the emblems, upgrade the lights olso billet housings, and dillet hood hinges. I will have a list for my insider to sit with Chip and say this would make him fall over.HAAAHAAHHAHAHAHA yes!!!.
I would put more than 100 miles on it. Don't get me wrong I love working on my car but I enjoy driving it better!!!!

At the Christmas party I handed my CNC programmer a copy of Tony Huntimer's Ford PT book to help redo his 67 Mustang. She took me aside and said she applied for Overhaulin and was heartbroken that they were turned down.

She was shocked when I told her that all the Overhaulin cars were slapped together. I convinced her that everything they need to know is in Tony H's book.

Everyone I talk to says the same thing. We would much rather be dazzled with skill than drama

Those cars stay there for 2-4 months getting the bugs worked out.....
