Chip Foose

My altime favorite car designer is Chip Foose. His ideas about what to do on a car is absolutely astounding. When he draws a picture of his cars, its almost like you want to jump in the frame and ride the car home. Thats how realistic his designs are. In one of my other posts I wrote about, is was about the Foose mustang. I also said that my dad had one also but he had to give it away. We had so musch fun in the car. All you could hear was the exhaust and the wheels spinning. If all you Ford fans are looking to buy a mustang, get the Foose Mustang GT. It will blow your mind!

The reason why I enjoy Chip Fooses work is when he draws a picture, he will take his time in no hurry what so ever and it will turn out beautiful. I enjoy drawing myself. Basically the only things I draw are cars. Any kind like I'll draw trucks from the 1920-2010. Or I'll draw cars from 1920's to 2010.

A TV show that Chip Foose host's is called (Overhaulin). That show is awsome! Especially if Chip Foose isn't done with his project, his guys will play a trick on the customer. Somtimes they'll pretend to be cops or a towing company telling them that smothing bad has happened to there car. So the customers will just stay home and think about there car and that it's gone. Its pretty harsh but they get somthing even better in return. They'll get the car of there dreams but more than they could,ve wanted out of it.So Thats why I admire Chip Foose

Foose Mustang GT

Now I know I’ve said that a lot of cars are my favorite but there’s still one more I need to share. This is no ordinary car. This is the coolest fastest car that is the ultimate eye catcher. (The Foose Stallion GT). Now the name may have stallion in it but it’s really a mustang GT. But actually it’s not a regular mustang, there’s a bit more to it than that.

The engine is very familiar it’s got the same 4.6lt V8 done up with a Ford racing suspension, JBA catback exhaust system, cold air induction, and Foose design wheels. But the best part of the car is the body and paint. I mean the paint is Immaculate! The paint is so shiny and sleek. It comes in satin silver, cherry red, dark blue, well enough about the paint. Now the body is so streamline and aerodynamic that it cuts the wind in half with the hood. The special thing about the hood is it’s just like a knife. It will just cut the wind and makes it more streamline.

But the main part why I like this car is because my dad had a 2006 Foose mustang. #14 out of 2000 others in the 2006 model. It was very rare. But the sad part about it was my dad had to give it up because he couldn’t afford it anymore because he got laid off from his job. So we had a lot of fun in it with the races and the cruises we shared. So that’s my story for this blog.

Bullitt

The movie (Bullitt) is another great memorable movie with the actor Steve McQueen. This is my favorite movie of all time. This movie is full of action and great car chases and everything! My favorite character from Bullitt is, well of course it’s going to be Steve McQueen. My favorite part of the movie is the chase scene when Steve McQueen chase those guys in there dodge charger. Yuck!!! A Dodge. Come on! Not to hurt any feelings but that charger sounded like the engine needed to get overhauled. I’ll admit, the mustang sound was a little edgy. But it’s still sounds amazing when it catches up to those guys.

I know this isn’t the 1968 Bullitt mustang but it’s the newer 2008 mustang Bullitt version. The old mustang from the movie had a 380 ford engine. The charger had I think either a 440 or a 383. I’m not sure. But there both V8’s so let’s just leave it as that. Now this new mustang has a 4.6 or 289 ford racing engine. It’s got a cold air intake if I’m correct. Also for this new mustang it has instead of a 355 rear-end it has a 373 which will just spin those tires really fast!

A reason I chose this movie for my blog is because it’s a great movie to watch and it’s got some pretty cool cars. But the best reason why I chose this is because of Steve McQueen’s mustang.

Gone sixtey seconds

Gone in sixty seconds is one of the most recognized movies of all time. The main part of the film is when Memphis Reigns was the greatest car thief of all time. But he gave up his criminal life and moved away from his family and friends to keep out of danger from his mistakes. But it didn’t work.

While Memphis was gone, his little brother named Kip Reigns became a car thief just like his older brother. One night he was going on a boost, (steal cars), He was at the Porche car dealer figuring out which of the cars in the building was the rarest one out of them. So he threw a brick at the wall at the window and it broke into a million pieces! He went in with his partner and he kept on complaining to not steal it because there was no way to get the car out. But that didn’t stop him. So Kip drove the car straight into the glass and made a drive for it. As there were getting away from the dealership, on the way they ended up right next to a car with a nice ride. So they raced and passed the cops and ran a red light! So they went back to their hideout full of stolen cars and the cops found them but they made a run for it! But that’s not the end of the story. Well, let’s cut to the chase. So Kips older brother has to save
Kip from being killed from the guy that Kip took the job from, (Ramon Caletree). But the only way he could save him is to steel 50 cars in 3 days. He got all the 49 cars to him but he really screwed up on delivering the last car. This was Eleanor. So he finally delivered the car 12 minutes late and so he decided to kill Memphis since he was there. But his friends saved him and Memphis pushed Ramon Caletree of the highest floor and so Ramon died. After that they celebrated with a barbeque. But Memphis was in for a surprise. His brother gave him keys to his favorite car Eleanor.

The reason I like this movie is because I’m a big fan of cars and of Eleanor. So this is my favorite car action movie of all time.
