Although I respect Chip Foose's skills as an artist and customizer, I would never want his crew to "overhaul" any of my cars. I remember reading a piece somewhere by a guy who'd been "overhauled" and he said that there were several details that were half-assed on his particular car. I guess you'd have to expect that when a re-build that would normally take several months or more to complete is jammed thru in a week. I think the article also mentioned that the "mark" had to sign some sort of agreement stating that they wouldn't alter the appearance of the vehicle, or sell it, for some specified length of time. This may or may not be totally factual...it was quite some time ago that I remember reading it. What would happen if you didn't agree after the fact...would they just keep your car? How could that be legal? Foose must have some sort of contract in place before spending his time and the sponsor's money on one of these overhauls.
All that aside, it was nice to see that the show never degenerated to the point where everybody spent more time arguing with each other than working on the project.
