Four hours later, we were telling him he had to take a break. We had him on stage at autorama signing autographs, he was suppose to be up there for two hours. I have met chip on many occasions, not only is he talented, but he is also humble, and a really great guy. And could give a crap about our talent or if we have any at all. Fact is, everybody on this board knows who he is, and how much talent he has. Frankly i don't think 4-doors & station wagons are very traditional rod or custom material. as all that seems to be left of those Canadian Chevrolets are the grille shells. the plan was to pull the plug on selling the cars, and then let them all rust away. Once they had all these Chevy cars, and no guns. and then keep selling them cars to pass off to the Canadian people as their own. The US wanted to trade the guns for the rights to the re-badged Novas and Chevelles. The French guns were perported to have 'Never been fired and only dropped once'. They traded the US government something like thirty seven thousand AME rifles to finally pull out of the deal. It was a part of a diabolical plan to brain wash Canadians into thinking they could engineer and build something.Īlas, it didn't work. Our government made GM sell a bunch of cars in Canada and disguized them as Canadian designed, engineered and built automobiles. There was a conspiracy in the 60's for the United States to annex Canada like we did Hawaii and that other place up North. what are they?Īlso, an Acadian is just a Nova or Chevy II with a different grille. how come they list a '4 door station wagon' under cars that were called Novas?Īnd if they aren't Novas. in all of the literature from Chevrolet on Novas.

and so we had to get to call it a night and looked forward to our full day planned for Sat.Click to expand.You're one of those guys who gets all nutted up over names and labels, huh? We aimed for the bigger cruise ins.a couple of them had been the location for the reveal on Overhaulin in the aces like Deraleck Donuts and Coffee and Cars, etc. SoCal is very serious about their cars and a quick google search shows many 'cruise in's' on a weekend day. Here's the truck.if you're ever in the neighborhood and see it rollin down the road. Lynn shared with us about all the projects he's got going besides Overhaulin.he's defiinately a busy guy. Just very surprising for a man as busy as he is. He's just like he is on TV, very nice and very humble guy.Īfter the pics and some casual conversation he asked 'did you get something.go get it and bring it in.I'll sign it for you'.

'Chip, do you mind if I get a quick picture?'. I know that man is busy and probably gets hounded all the time but.what the heck, he can always say no. I was pretty sure I knew who this was, as I'd seen this truck on the show on several occassions.

I walked back over and went in and asked Lynn but she said they were out of stock and expected them in this week.Īs I started back out the driveway and through the gates a black Ford F-150 pulled up to the gate. Once we got back to the truck, I got to thinking.I should have asked if they had window stickers for the back window of my truck.be right back. Oh, and I bought a t-shirt.less than you're going to pay at an HD dealership! All in all it was a good time. It was a nice tour to see all this stuff first hand and hear the stories and of course the price was ee. It's also smaller than it looks on TV.Īs we were walking back to my truck, there was this little ride at the deli, next door. It's just a few doors down, at the end of the court.

He hasn't done a car for himself in a lot of years but he's going to start on this one.Īs we were leaving, we walked down to the end of the street to snap this pic of Lanzini's Body Works (where they paint all of the cars on Overhaulin. This is Chip's personal woody wagon (So Cal has a lot of woody wagons and I think I saw most of them this weekend). Yes, I had to get a t-shirt.just so I could prove I'd been there. In her office is where they keep all the t-shirts, jackets, etc. This is her current office and has been for 12-15 years but she said she's really looking forward to finally getting moved over to the new building. Lynn said that Chip built all the furniture in the new building. Lynn, his secretary.not to be confused with Lynn, his wife.is also the tour guide. Chip also has quite a number of his other childhood toys on shelves and hanging from the ceilings.like he knew that Chip's rode a unicycle since he was a kid?
