That charlie guy seemed to be the most normal of all of Boyd's employees. It's no wonder he got out quick and found someone normal to work with.

One thing about Chip he not only does the designs, he is also hands on. He does not ask anyone to do something he is not also doing himself.

Foose has way to much class to hire a no talent like bluebear.
Bluebear belongs on a show like The Saga of the Sons & Daughters of Sons & Daughters.

Very surprised to see Charlie. He seems very talented and has some common sense.

Sue and I were discussing the differences of Boyd and Foose, we both like the attitude that Foose shows us. No yelling and screaming at the guys. If something needs done someone is there to do it, NO THREATS OR YELLING.

I think Boyds producers thought the OCC format with the yelling and cussing was the ticket. I would much rather see the talent of the guys and not have to have ever other word bleeped. I know it is TV but they let the guys go too far. Bluebear should have been canned a long time ago. But they let it go. It is ok to have fun at work, but when another employee complains to management about the harassment and they don't do anything they are violating the law. I love seeing the real talant on the show, but if they cancelled it and never showed another it would be no big loss.

The one thing I really enjoyed was the old man welding the doors shut on bluebears junker

It is hard to believe they (overhaulin) do a car in a week. I have been working on my Dart for almost 10 years now. It would be interesting to see the details that take place before the show airs. They would have to have the people, supplies, vendors all lined up to be able to do it. I don't know any body shop that is open 24 hours a day. And a chrome shop that can turn around something in 24 hours.

The lady that we are going to talk to tomorrow about the Dart interior said she can do it in 4 days. I guess since they work in teams the interior can be worked on as soon as the seats and trim is removed............I NEEDED TO BE OVERHAULED......BUT IT IS TOO LATE

You want to see a FOOSE Prowler, look up Dick Marriot's

You beat me to it. My next post was going to say Basically the same thing about How good Bluebear would fit in at OCC . My Favorite and only!! I can't stand to watch it anymore, OCC show was when the rocket scientist at OCC had two Bikes fall of a lift in the same Show.

I do custom painting on auto/ choppers, and I sit there amazed at his talent and ENERGY. He is so prolific and productive, it boggles my mind. DOES THIS GUY EVER SLEEP????

I watched the first few minutes of Rides Tuesday night before I fell asleep and missed Charlie on with Fosse. I doesn't surprise me that Charlie left Boyd. If the last Boyd show was any indication, the was a lot of descension between the staff there and with them and Boyd. I agree that Boyd's seems to be a jerk, but he should have fired Blue Bear a long time ago. I can't imagine an employee talking to the owner like he did to Boyd.

I agree that Overhaulin and Rides are great shows. Chip Fosse does fantastic work and has an unbelievable imagination. He is a true artist with pen/paper, but even more so with his rolling pieces of art. Out of all the builders that I have seen in my limited experience, I'd rather have a Fosse creation than any other.

Yup, and the fat kid with no talent, always smilin and goofing off was the comic relief.

The staggered way the guy in charge (not Boyd) talked even seemed to mimic the way Paul Jr. would explain things on OCC.

The wife even commented that the two shows formats seemed almost the same. Showing them working, showing them playing at amusement parks, etc.

Clearly, the format didn't work with these guys.

Another show that will give you a headache with all the inbread fighting is WingNuts. Where do they find these folks????

I couldn't agree more. I wish I had the pockets to drop my Prowler off at Chip's place and see what he'd do with it. I haven't seen a car yet on either Overhaulin' or Rides I wouldn't like to have in my garage.

I saw on a Jackson-Barrett preview show of the January auction in Scottsdale 3 of Boyd's creations that were going to be sold. They gave full details of the cars, which including the Alumitub.
