Overhaulin'

To any fans of the TV show Overhaulin'...?

Can you pay Chip Foose to overhaul your own car or do they only do it for cars chosen by them? Is there a place in CA that can do something similar (full frame up restoration in a matter of days or weeks)? I ask because my dad has a beat-up '67 Chevy Camaro that I would love to have restored like the way they do it on the show.

1. yeah, chip foose is a custom car designer/fabricator. That being said, the prices he charges are astronomical. And its not a restoration per say, its a restoration+update/upgrade and such. A restoration just brings it back to original condition. There are tons of restoration shops that bring cars back up to amazing shape for a a fraction of what foose would charge. For him to touch your car it would most likely have to be a minimum of a 6 figure job.
2. I own a shop, and watch that show becasue I do restoration work too. You should find their website and see if you can't get your dad's car signed up to be on there. If you can convince them it would make a good show, maybe they would do his too. They have a large crew that does the overhaulin, and they work 24/7 on them pretty much, so that is how they get it done that quick. Glad to help out, Good luck!!!
