Who would you like to have a beer with ?

If you had the chance to sit down and share a few cold beers with some of your car heros, who would they be ? For me there are quite a few that I would love to do that with, but here are 3 guys that I bet would be interesting to get to know and kick back with:

Norm Grabowski (Met him briefly at Turkey Run a few years ago, super, super guy and funny as hell)

Bill Hines. No explanation needed here, just a walking legend.

Chip Foose. I know he isn't exactly traditional, but I think he is a really nice guy who will spend as much time talking with a fan as they want, and there is no denying he has massive skills in every phase of car building.


Celebrities don't usually do a lot for me, but I would love to crack open a few cold ones and get these three guys around a table. Who would you guys pick ?
