1/12! oh boy! I used to watch a reality show that was based on his design work and art. The program would choose an individual whose friend or family had written in and requested a complete auto make-over for a car. Then Foose and the team would go to work. Design, tear down, rebuild, customize, fantastic paint and unbelievable features. They did the whole project in one week!!

I was a fan of the show a couple of years back. My Dad tried to sin me up for one of those shows when I had a '72 AMC Ambassador that was a project too big for my meager skills. They only consider candidates from California, probably because of production costs. I've always been disappointed by those Foose kits though. The artwork is mind blowing but the models never look the same on the insets on the box. So far I haven't been able to pick one up because I just keep getting turned off by the pictures. If they made a Foose kit based on his artwork, now that would be something I'd love to build. His artwork is astonishing.
