Why We Like Chip Foose

We don't know Chip very well, but he was always really cool to us when we were a struggling hack. One of our favorite memories came from the night before the Grand National Roadster Show a few years back. Chip was displaying his then-recently-finished Speedbird, and he was out there on the carpet, in his socks, detailing the car himself, no minions in sight. It's nice to know that even though he's like 2500 times famouser than he was at the time, that some things don't change. [Photo courtesy the illustrious, StarQuestrious Bumbeck.]
