Weird. I'm pretty sure I just saw Chip Foose do a Falcon in dark blue suede. Is suede becoming that "popular?" And don't pick on me for watching Overhaulin...that girl is ha-ha-Hot. <Insert wolf whistle here>
It was a '63 Falcon. Looked pretty good. two tone blue suede with a gloss white top. Whaite interior with blue piping.
That's funny, the reason I won't watch that show is because of that chick host. Sure, she's hot, but almost all chicks on TV are hot. No amount of big jugs and tight *** can make up for the fact that she obviously doesn't know what the **** she's talking about. She should just stand off to the side and let Chip talk. Sorry for the rant. It was only a matter of time before they did something in suede. Boyd did a primered car too. The producers of the show picked up on a new trend and figured they should work it into the show. When you see fart-canned Civics finished in suede, then it's time to move on to something else.
There's been suede Hondas and Toyotas and a flamed suede black PT Cruiser running around here for several years.! But this is "So. Cal."!!! The heart and breeding ground (crotch?) of everything KOOL and also the first place for it to become "p***e" It's PAST time, Way past time, to move on to something else!
You can get factory suede paint on new motorcycles. I saw a suede green Honda sportbike last year when I took the Motorcycle Safety Course (cl***room was at Honda dealer). Yes, when major marques are offering suede paint, it is mainstream.
she's so annoying same with the host guy. They should just film the build of the car and tell them to stfu.
Give her a chance. Did you read about her in Hot Rod? I bet she knows more than the show lets her admit. She grew up with this stuff and then stuck with it (kinda )
i had a sued civic but shhh dont tell any one and thats the hot **** around here now with all the import/drift guys. primer is cool all around. And they did that falcon that way cause the kid that owned it wanted it done in blue sued. it was a cool episode. I like that show more then most of them ones out there. least the boss (chip) gets his hands dirty. come crunch time boyd just sits back and barks out orders "Rant over"
Believe it or not my winter beater is 'flat black' tremclad rust paint... best $16 paint job i've ever seen... and not to be cool either, to stop the little jap piece of **** from breaking out in cancer!
The reason CHip had the car painted suede blue is because thats what the kids mom said he always wanted. The kids somewhat color blind and can't see a lot of colors, but he can see blue and hes "Old School"
You got that right. Pisses my wife off to no end when I watch her. Notice I say "watch her" and not "watch overhaulin". But like I always say, just cus I'm on a diet don't mean I can't look at the menu, hehe...
The million $$ question, whats the show like as a rule ?? what do they normally work on , good stuff or import junk ?
Is suede becoming that "popular?" Well I think suede if becoming popular, but if the stories tr, the Mom said to Foose that the kid was going to paint it suede blue when the kid was going to fix it up...
