There's guys near me that do wicked, one-off fabricating.
Chip is just an artist, IMO.
I am with you on this & at the same time have to disagree a bit. He redrew his F100 that required moving major body pieces to make what in the end were very subtle changes. When finished it still looked like a F100. As far as the show goes for the most part of what I have seen it is plug this in, plug that in, add wheels with Foose in the center caps, etc. It provides him a check so if in his shoes I think most of us would do what the producers wanted as well. One thing I do like about his show builds is that they usually can be taken back to stock if the owner wanted. A perfect example was the Road Runner ragtop. That's a high dollar car in stock form. If anything I think the Foose build to it lowered it's value.

A friend of mine knows him and has worked with him before. He says a nicer guy you wont meet. I think he is an great artist. I think his attention to detail is unbelievable.
