    Foose is pretty good but I'd probably end up with flames on my car, which I don't really like..

    Chip Foose is a living legend, id love a car built by him. Boyd Coddington, he makes some nice cars, and the guys he has working for him are some of the best, but Boyd himself is a wanker, he takes credit for cars he doesnt build anymore and just seems, well, like an asshole from the american hotrod show, but thats just my opinion. Id much rather a chip foose car than a coddington car anyday
    I used to play sports. Then I realized you can buy trophies. Now I’m good at everything.

    From watching the shows I'd agree with that comment. On American Hotrod they have made it obvious Boyd and Chip don't get along, anyone know why?

    No idea why but it seems like Chip and Boyd want to take each others heads off, Boyd was really upset when one of his painters left for Chip Foose, dont blame the painter though, Chip builds better cars

    chip used to work for boyd, he was basiclly boyds 2IC. boyd went bust and chip moved on to do his own thing. maybe boyd didnt want one of 'his own' working against him..?

    They all build magnificent cars that have workmanship of the highest order.

    With a couple of exceptions I would probably prefer to do my own car though. Main reason is that one is really buying what they like as opposed to what what "I" would like.

    I do like watching the shows though as they are full of ideas for anybody into cars.
