On Rides Now! TLC

Charley and Beatle Bailey are on deck!

 

It's a great car. The thing (more Boyd bashing by me) Chip is willing to do is talk to people and his line about everyone at the show being a potential best friend because they are into cars just like him. That's great, Boyd doesn't reflect that at all. Great show by the way.

 

Chip says anyone who is competing at the autorama is not a competitor...they are a potential best friend.

Man he's a great guy!

He really shows that there is hope for humanity!

 

What more can one say about this guy . . . I know people may seem different in front of a camera, but darn does Chip seem like a 'regular' guy. And his work lends itself to something 'outside the box' but keeping with traditions that are embedded in 'hot rodding'.

Seems like someone I'd like to have a beer with . . . .

 

I agree, I'd buy Chip a beer. Now Overhaulin is on and it's looking like a new one. Good night for TV.

 

i saw that...looks awesome! one thing that puzzled me though...chip has ford v8 logos all over the car, but it has an ls1 engine :scratch:

 

That's was my only issue as well . . . not a fan of Hot Rodders throwing Chevy V8's into everything thing created . . . .

 

Anyone catch that part where Chip held up the life-size cut out of Coddington to the paint booth window.

I agree Chip is just such a down to earth guy. Like he said "Everyone here is not a competitor but a potentially new friend." And the emotion that he showed when winning the award just shows you his love for what he does.

 

How can you guys watch those shows?

B-O-R-I-N-G!

Once you've seen one, you've seen them all.

 

:scratch: huh?

Yeah well, personal opinion I guess

 

Are You joking? How can those shows be boring? They show different cars with each new episode. You must be stuck on the re-runs.

 

Because I enjoy cars, seeing someone create something that's like art, and you can learn stuff along the way. List your favorite 10 shows and I'm sure you'll get some comments on your taste.

 

Not to mention that car was completely hand fabricated from scratch except for the engine, transmission and rear end. Everything else was welded, hammered, molded, cut and painted by hand!

 

yea, chip is a nice guy...boyd is a jerk imo...i bet charley and beatle bailey are much happier with chip

 

That's for sure! Just watch:

#1 Seinfeld reruns
#2 Larry Sanders DVDs
#3 Old Columbo reruns on lousy VHS tapes
#4 Any movie with Andie McDowell
(slots 5 thru 10 are blank due to TV s u c k i n g)

 

So many comments........so little time.

 

yeah no kidding..anyway..it's his opinion. Probably hates Top Gear too :P

I lost it when chip had the boyd cut out..man i thought it was funny!

 

That was great.

 

Chip is a great guy, and this is why I waited in line for over 3 hours to get his autograph and meet him at the Atlantic City Classic Car Auction this past Febuary. He is a ture down to earth fellow, who you can sit and talk cars with for hours on end. He is the best .
