Well if someone already posted it, heres a duplicate but this is the info according to JBG. I am excited to see it, I looked on the Overhaulin site to see if there was a preview but didn't find anything.

Sweet! I'm counting down the days to see this episode.

If you set it up as a season pass it will work.

They got my brother and his 69 firebird 400 late last year. They aired it in February and still show it some. The name of his episode is "Neighborhood watch". I pretty much ruled my bronco out at that time. I didn't think they would do two people from one family.

curious who picks up the tab for the rebuild?

 

[Mike Hewett]

Am I missing something or is there an old bronco on the show? I don't see anything about what vehicle is going to be on the show, maybe i am missing something.

Yeah they are going to do an EB on the show coming up...most of us are pretty jazzed about it especially with Foose doing the mods...it wont have 10 subs and video panels all over the thing. Not sure what he will do with a 4x4 since most of the buildups I have seen have been muscle cars or cruisers. I guess it is in cooperation with Jeff's Bronco Graveyard, they have a tagline on their site that says...

Can the Bronco Graveyard restore an early Bronco in 7 days?
Maybe with the help of Chip Foose & the Overhaulin' crew...

-= Tuesday, April 18th @ 9pm on TLC =-

I am definitely looking forward to it myself, Chip Foose does some pretty cool projects and is a master with the magic marker ;D

 

[Mike Hewett]

I love that show, but with a bronco being on there I may not be able to contain myself

I can get usually 2-3 weeks depending on the channel and what they have pre scheduled. I have Overhaulin on season pass as well so I should be good ;D ;D ;D

i'm wondering who got overhauled! Maybe it was Seabiscuit!

 

[fastback]

From what my brother told me the sponsors donate or pay for all the parts. I think the Host garage contributes the labor? He said he would have to pay gift taxes on the difference in the new value of the car vs the old value. He can not sell it for 1year and they (the sponsors) have access to it anytime they need it for car shows or photo shoots. They give him a loaner while they have it. It ended up costing him money because His firebird was a daily driver which now is to nice to drive daily. He is not complaining. ;D

as in the last reply -- I always wonder about the vehicles overhauled about how you could park that sucker anywhere - I like vehicles clean & drivable as mine goes lots of places ,but if it was foosed out I'd be limited cause it would be too clean

I would take that deal pretty quickly! ;D What kind of loaner does he get when they take it?

He didn't say. They redid it this past october And he just got the car about a month ago. He said it all really happens within a weeks time. From the time it was stolen untill they revealed it.
