So clean that it t is ready for museum But if you know the Hot rod museum dosent have any more room. I picked up a suburban out of the vault that was Mr Petersens personal 2nd car in 2007 and the basement was packed with his multiple ferraris and other odd vehicles I still have it; 4X4 454 1995
Chip -- This series has been amazing. One of the best of any auto series... this was about preservation of a historic piece that a very few realized it existed. You preserved a car and a story for everyone to enjoy. Congrats to the Foose Design channel.
I wrote my last comment at the beginning of this RUclips segment, I think you are absolutely the best in the industry. Your sense of "family" and compassion is the essence of what this "hobby" is all about.. Keep following your direction. You are what drives just to try things beyond our shill levels.
I have always loved seeing the Barris Enameled Badge/Crest on the fenders. Its was a simple of pride. We need to see more of that current ‘ one off artistic ‘ creations.
Chip, you are TRULY one "lucky" SOB . Not only do you have the opportunity to play/work with the epitome of automotive designers (such as Chuck Barris). You can get away with "tweaking" some of those cars to fit modern standards. This one didn't need any tweaking, just the application (on the exterior) of a lot of elbow grease, soap, water and wax. All that said, if I could afford you, I have a couple of cars I'd LOVE to have you do similar restorations on. NOT "resto-mods"!

Such a great story with the brothers getting to know their Father in a different light was outstanding as well as the family connection with Joji Barris tugged right at the old heart strings. Great work Chip, the car looks fantastic!
Chip, this project is taking your show "Overhaulin' to the next level. Your level! You are the inspiration in the industry today. I wish you many, many years of your talent driving the industry. The Riddler awards you have won are only an"Atta boy " your talent far surpasses any awards.
So nice to be able to watch and listen to the family’s involved. True American history and now age 75 I’ve watched a lot of it and have owned/ still own a bunch of these vehicles. I’m down to around 40 now.
This would have to be one of the best video series on you tube I couldn’t think of anyone better than Chip and his crew to do something this historic I would love to see you guys find and do more of these as Dylan mc cool says roadster rations and to have George’s daughter there was so great can’t wait to see the next chapter in this cars life keep up the good work
❤❤❤ Thank you Chip for taking the time to bring this car back to the masterpiece that Barris and crew made it into all those years ago. I love all the back story and family connection to the family that owns it to Barris’s daughter and Chip’s upbringing that ties it all together. I grew up in an automotive family and the connection and memories that I carry with me are priceless. If the car is sold I hope whoever buys it respects it as much as you did Chip on keeping it original.
I really hope this goes for how much it deserves to get and ends up in a museum where people can enjoy it and see some real hot rodding history. Not just some rich person who wants something no one else has and no one ever sees it again...
Chip did an amazing job cleaning and fixing this car and keeping it original - congrats !! What a beauty - i guarantee that car would win any show it was entered in- truly one of a kind
No better steward than Chip to bring the car back to how it looked when George Barris completed the car. Thank you Chip for all the hard work and effort you put into the car.
My Late Pop's had a 57 Oldsmobile it was factory French beige with white stripes... French beige was a light pink.....we had lots of pictures with the family and that car....It was gorgeous....Duals through the bumper dual 4jet Rochester and 455 Rocket or the equivalent to....I was a little boy but remember what I seen cause my Pops always had me work under the hood even at a young age he called me Shorty I grew between 8th and 9th grade....9 inches one summer.... Anyway glad Pop taught me so young...I have turned a lot of wrenches.
So great that you have documented this, just think of all the people who saw this back in the day, being able to see it has a new life ahead of it still, and with a potential new owner !

Met george barris in Monterey in 2015, being greek myself it was a treat taking to him for 30 min, he passed away a few months later, glad i got a picture of us together, he saw me in a parking lot in my 67 cougar and said ,i always wanted to customize a 67 cougar it was on my top ten list!
Well I enjoyed all the episodes bringing this old George Beris car back to life. Been a car enthusiast my whole life played with hot wheels in early 70's. My uncle's and Aunties worked for General Motors right after WWII in Richmond California then it moved to Fremont California. Retired out when they moved to KC. Some cousin's had to move with the company to retire out. In Fremont I used to hear the car's on the drag strip racing. Back in the 1970's. Got to see the GM worker's drive up to the Union hall in the brand new Fire Birds with the flaming Bird on the hood and many other Hot Rods. Being kid's my brother's and I loved the look and sound of the car's. My Pop's took me and my younger brother to are first big Hot Rod and Roadster show in Oakland California late 70's I was hooked ever since on all vehicles that people designed anything that has an engine in it. Heck even if it has wing's on it I can appreciate the engineering that went into it to get it in the air. To they guy building a car in his driveway.
I love the story of this car. And to think it lived near to where I went to High School. Ans was put away the year I graduated. You did the best thing that could have been done for it and the brothers. It is too bad the youngest could not make it out. Thank you Chip, your one in a million!
great story great car thanks for bring it back to glory!... i hope whomever buys it puts it in a place of sharing and promotion instead of back in a private garage 🙏👍🏻😂
Great story. Great history. And it shows that dads always had time to spend with their kids and share their passion. Great cars, great times. Too bad they're fading away.
What a dilemma for the brothers, who gets to keep it, who gets to drive it, will it be a rotational ownership. If I was the big Bro, " it's mine, your too little ." Fantastic rejuvenation of a piece of history, both personal & industry. Well Done Mr Foose & team.
If you look at the brothers one is excited. The one is not. Sad. Sometimes it better to sell it. I have a feeling it would end up back in the garage again rotting as one appears to like it the other appears uninterested.

@FooseDesignInc - Thanks so much Chip for helping the brothers out, for taking such respectful care of George's original work and keeping the car as original as possible while making it driveable...
I love the custom paint. I'm not a fan of clear coat. I like seeing the colors and the body lines, not a reflection of me and the rest of the neighborhood. It has just the right amount of shine. Beautiful restoration. 👍👍
It's not one of the well known Barris Kustoms like the Hirohita Merc or the Batmobile. I'm gonna guess 250. However if two people with deep pockets both want it bad enough I could see a world where it goes 7 figures.
saw barris long ago when he was displaying the monkey mobile and the tv bat man car, both looking like theprop movie cars, they were. he was dressed in a one piece leisure suit and never stopped moving. this design only confirms my thinking that a pleasure car needs to be open, otherwise it can never be more than second string.
This car deserves being shown at the Peterson Museum. Barris contributed a lot to the success of Hot Rod magazine and Robert E Peterson. .
So clean that it t is ready for museum But if you know the Hot rod museum dosent have any more room.
I picked up a suburban out of the vault that was Mr Petersens personal 2nd car in
2007 and the basement was packed with his multiple ferraris and other odd vehicles
I still have it; 4X4 454 1995
So glad you got involved to help the brothers out, and let us be a part of it. Thanks Chip

Chip, the amount of work you and your team did. It shows in the revitalization of this beautiful car.

Ummm... George Barris Kustom Kar King. Chuck Barris songwriter of "Palisades Park", TV producer, "The Gong Show" host.

What a great series and what a great story. Thank you, Chip for sharing this story. So touching.
That was a great series. Thanks Chip.

Thank you Chip

This car is timeless!
Great story.! I've been watching all of your videos on this car. What a time capsule! Hubcaps are from a 1956 oldsmobile.

WOW what a absolutely brilliant story. Barn finds over 30 years old in uk are rare, 50 years is unheard of !! God bless you Mr Foose
This is great, and I love the story. Thanks!
It’s interesting the level of detail Chip thinks in…

The original Greased Lightning.
Yes!!! That's why it looks like one I've seen before! I couldn't place what it reminded me of for anything! 😃👊🏼
great story great car thanks for bring it back to glory!... i hope whomever buys it puts it in a place of sharing and promotion instead of back in a private garage 🙏👍🏻😂
Thanks for sharing that story Chip . I recall that car back in the day in a magazine .
Those photos are decades before my time, but its so cool to see pics from the 50's/60's
Great story. Great history. And it shows that dads always had time to spend with their kids and share their passion. Great cars, great times. Too bad they're fading away.
Once in a life time
Such an incredible piece of American car culture history!
I'd love to see it with the top up too!!~
OUTSTANDING 🔥🔥🔥
Fantastic story,thanks Chip.
Interesting, informative and entertaining. Great series of videos. Nicely done.
Thanks for taking us along for the ride Chip…
Couldn't get someone to cry
What a dilemma for the brothers, who gets to keep it, who gets to drive it, will it be a rotational ownership.
If I was the big Bro, " it's mine, your too little ."
Fantastic rejuvenation of a piece of history, both personal & industry.
Well Done Mr Foose & team.
Thank. You. So. Much.
That why the car scenic is great bringing family together thanks chip goose great story.
If you look at the brothers one is excited. The one is not. Sad.
Sometimes it better to sell it. I have a feeling it would end up back in the garage again rotting as one appears to like it the other appears uninterested.
I , ya know like, ya know, the ya know, video
Thanks for sharing this story, Chip.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Go Cougs!!!
AMAZING
This car is amazing and beautiful but it amazes me that they put that much work and left the interior pretty much stock
Gene Winfield is a local resident of the Paso Robles area.

Great videos
Love the story
Cool car, cool history 😊
Excellent work Chip.
Jeeezus-K-christo-!!-Those guys must be 10 feet tall-!!!-how did they fit in that Olds-??
Beautiful story and people. Such an awesome experience to share for all of us car , Barris and Foose fans. Thanks for chronicling the process Chip.
Cheers to all involved. Hope it gets a good home. Sure it will.
Beautiful Car
Thanks for Sharing with all of us to see ! ❤❤
I been following this Kool Kustom and what you've done chip for preserving history is awesome, an guys share the Oldsmobile don't sell it .
i read the title and thought it said chip crashed the car
Yeah, I get to the end and go - no she didn't ! Had to go back a read the title again. Doh!
@FooseDesignInc - Thanks so much Chip for helping the brothers out, for taking such respectful care of George's original work and keeping the car as original as possible while making it driveable...
Can express the tks for Preserving this piece of history an sharing it with us all.
Now is the time to sell!
The car ia BADASS......no other way to describe it!!!
Love the Bullwinkle nosed cars, just can’t imagine trying to wheel one of those fabulous beasts around town these days ❤
Very very cool, but the question is, what are you asking for it? Or is it going on auction?....
what a great story/car/people...
I want it 😎
Did this car go to auction? How’d it do?
Great job
Blue interior clashes with that paint.
Awesomeness 🤙🏾
I love the custom paint. I'm not a fan of clear coat. I like seeing the colors and the body lines, not a reflection of me and the rest of the neighborhood. It has just the right amount of shine. Beautiful restoration. 👍👍
What a hard choice to sell the car . But I can understand it also. I wish I had the kind of money it would take to buy it
Magic!!❤
Selling it would be a crime 😮💨
Very Kool car!!! Plus... GO COUGS!!!
👍😎👍
Now the big question, What will it sell for. Let's here some guesses.
It's not one of the well known Barris Kustoms like the Hirohita Merc or the Batmobile. I'm gonna guess 250. However if two people with deep pockets both want it bad enough I could see a world where it goes 7 figures.
Under $100K
Oops, *Hirohata* not Hirohita.
So neat. The skirts pop. ❤
Takes an awful lot of work for a car to be so effortlessly cool as this beautiful creation. ❤
Fantastic video and story. Ron
Hopefully they can hit a few shows in it before they pass the legacy on 🙂
Please Don't Sell That Car. Please
Chipmyour Dad would have loved to work on this car with you. Righteous save.
Chip did this car right. Thanks for taking us along.😊
??? Hi Chip!
Was the interior changed? The article next to the picture mentions red Naugahyde interior.
Incredible series! Thank you to the Foose team for caring so much about this incredible history.
Id be pretty cool just to have chip foose pull up in your driveway period
saw barris long ago when he was displaying the monkey mobile and the tv bat man car, both looking like theprop movie cars, they were. he was dressed in a one piece leisure suit and never stopped moving.
this design only confirms my thinking that a pleasure car needs to be open, otherwise it can never be more than second string.
Awesome story and car. Great job to everyone involved 👍🏾👏🏾🙏🏾
Loved watching every minute of this series Chip. 😎 Preservation Restoration, loved it!
