Did anyone see the show where they stole Foose's truck and redid it? He was so sweet when he broke down!

No I didn't , it sounds neat I hope I get to see it! I don't watch this show often but when I do I really enjoy it. They do AMAZING work, I would love to have a car overhauled by them......especially a mustang........

Mysti, it is called "Overlord" and they remake his 56 pickup...which had previously been owned by his Dad who gave it to Foose when he was younger. Foose redid it into a show truck, won some awards with it, then sold it to put himself through school. He bought it back and put it in the shop meaning to redo it at some point but it was just sitting in his shop. His ultimate goal was to pass it down to his son (who is very young right now). It is an awesome episode. I love this show...especially when they redo older cars...not such much when they redo newer models.

Last night they redid a 1976 van...LOL...boy did that bring back memories! It was complete with the make-out couch in the back. Remember when the "Good Times" vans came out?

That was a great ep, Roxip! (not sure if I'm talking about the Foose episode, or the van one -- they were both great!) I love this show. I was none to thrilled, though, with the 2004 that they just redid. Maybe it was even an '05. Either way -- it STILL had that new car smell, did NOT need to be overhauled. And I"m not much feeling this new girl host they've got. Where'd Courtney go? At least we believed that she knew what she was talking about -- we'd always see her getting dirty with the guys. Sigh...

I heard that Courtney chose to leave the show, and the new girl is one of TPTB's girlfriend. She is a little better than she was at first but I still haven't warmed up to her as much either. I don't like the episodes where they do new cars, although I drove a rental Dodge Magnum last week and I kept thinking that it would have been a cool car if it had been "foosified."
