Overhaulin Samba
I watched the show with the Samba done by Chip Foose.It was on Discovery this week.
They got the history spot on and the resto was good.
I have to say,I won't mind Foose overhaulin one of my cars.

Re: Overhaulin Samba
I would love to know.
One thing I can say is that a lot of the purists don't like it.But as Foose said,it will stand out from the another Bus standing next to it.It will be,and is unique.

Re: Overhaulin Samba
I didn't appreciate the Volkswagen badge on the front.....the stance and wheels are awesome. It's the first Overhaulin' episode I've seen where they didn't use a Foose designed wheel.

Re: Overhaulin Samba
John I'm with you....missed the VW sign on front. I lived the wheels and stance but I also felt the indicators move down below the lights and the deluxe trim were wrong....I wonder if his safari windows leak when it rains?JohnHoffe wrote:I didn't appreciate the Volkswagen badge on the front.....the stance and wheels are awesome.

Still, would love to see what he could have done with "Mo"

Re: Overhaulin Samba
Damnit, I know the new series is on, but never know WHEN.... (because my Sky magazine goes to my friend's house in the UK).... so, anyone know if this can be downloaded from a uTorrent site?

Re: Overhaulin Samba
Just watched it. Only thing I would be worried about is the exhaust tips that are too close to the cut-outs... How would they keep them still?
