What a creative guy.  He added a lot to the hot rod life and special cars.

The stress that the show indicates, if mor than just good TV, would certainly add to ones risk of a cardio event.

He'll be surely missed.

What I liked about his TV builds was that the finished product always looked better than the picture which looked great.  When I watch Foose, the picture always looks better than the finished product (at least in my eyes).

I liked the 55-56 Chevy BelAire builds the best and the 53 Corvette.  Classic body styles with up to date engines with fuel injection, chassis, suspension, and brakes.

Never cared for either of his wives.

Wonder if the business will survive?

Enjoyed the show & mostly enjoyed his creations.  Too bad - not that old.

Did not seem him @ Barrett/Jackson & wondered what was up.
