an nother blob on wheels what is the point ??? i dont see what he is trying to do his car is normally much nicer than this ???????????
I respect Chip and try to see things thru his perspective. I like a lot of stuff he does but Im not feeling this one. At all.
Right! Like... what 15-20 years ago. Car is cool for what it is. It's not traditional but it's still way cool.
Im not into it.............. but the model A he did on overhaulin with the tri powered Y block....THAT WAS COOL!
Kind funny that it looks like a Boydster, Foose designed them too. I admire Foose's talent but like Kustom55 said, "I'm not feelin' this one"
If you look at the story behind the car, the fact that he designed it somthing like 15 years ago. And has held on to the dream all that time, and now has built his own car, for himself. Then I think it's pretty cool. Would I want it in my garage ..... only if I could trade it for somthing from the rollings bones shop! =)
saw it from pics at sema.... Rear engine.... I am sure the quality is second to none, but the styling is dated, but it is his car, that he dreamed about for a long time...Sure it makes him happy. And that is what matters, right?
not to hijack, but check out his other sema car, the P-32. this thing was pretty bad ass in person. i just don't remember the windshield pillars looking like they do in the pictures...
I admire his talent,and his attention to detail. Having said that,his show has ruined many a car. Now all you see at the swapmeets is bitchin cars,with those stupid BIG wheels. Not everything looks better with 20's. It would be cool if he did more stuff with a traditional style.
The Foose Hemisfear is a rear-engine vehicle that will be hand-built and sold as 50 unfinished Hot Rod kits by Gaffoflio Family Metalcrafters, a longtime Chrysler Group design partner and Mopar supplier.
LMFAO!!!!!!!!! Thats funny shit right there. It's his dream one-off car, but they're building 50 of them. Kinda lame.
A Swedish guy did a Volvo is similar style. Vollvo had nothing to do with the build but has later used his car i shows. That what i´ve been told anyway. Didn´t like the Volvo "rod" and i do not like the Foose "rod" either.
why? because you think your better than Chip Foose??? ...just fuckin with ya. i know thats not what you ment...
wow! i thought the hamb was about hot rods.... hmmm,carbon fiber body that weighs 250 pounds,tube chassie,500HP himi..weird.all hand made.it was the orignal drawing for the prowler. supercar or hotrod hell i'll drive it. i saw as it was getting painted.
Can't ever get together with a '33-'34 grill sticking out like the Wicked Crone Witch of the West's chin. They NEED the fenders to tie them together visually. All of them should roll the grill under '35 Miller-Ford style when they go fenderless. Then I'd like it.
whos gives a rat's fuckin ass what YOU like???? ...oh shit! am i on the computer drunk again??? fuuuuuck. i'm goin to bed....
