Foose spotted down at Autorama

I seen him setting up the car yesterday. It was kinda funny to see him after seeeing him on Overhaulin and Rides. The rig and trailer he had in cobo had to be close to 300 or 400K. I wanted say hi but he was busy with the car and I didnt wanna interrupt.I hope he walks around this weekend, I would love him to sign one of my strut towers

The car is based on a 36 ford roadster. I believe all the body panels are hand made. The car looks great. The car cost arond $600,000 to build. The car was supposed to be here last year but was not finished in time.

Re: Foose spotted down at Autorama

SUPERSPORTBOY2, what car were you setting up down there today?


I was there from 11am-2pm and I spotted Foose too. Some fellow classmates talked to him too.


We were in the far right corner near the entrance, I came down with Roseville High School Autoshop to set up our 41 ****** and 70 El Camino. It looks to be an awesome show. I don't know if Foose's car will win though, I was very impressed with some other entries.


Our Willly's is across from a super-stock Red LS1 F-body by the way . . . it was a nice car.

I ran into Courtney, Chip, and Troy on the people mover. I was so awe struck i couldn't say anything except "I hate to bether you, but can i get a quick picture?" They were cool about it and i got it on my cell phone. Afterwards I realized I should have gotten in the pic too

Re: Foose spotted down at Autorama

Damn you turd! I was supposed to go last night, but plans fell through, i might blow outta work early today to head up there, since it's award day and all i figured everybody should be in attendance, at least towards the end of the show....Picture op? I'll make sure i get in the pic though, i wonder if courtney would let a brother get a handfull? Even more important, would me ol'lady take the pic?
