My personal favorite is the one where they redid that guy's Ford Mustang (most recent, I believe)
I'm not a car person, but that thing looked s-w-e-e-t

I'd agree totally, the 70 Mustang was awesome. I was lovin' the way they carved out Chip's design on the tires, that just made it perfect. "The Gambler 514" was the sweetest ride. I thought the old guy "Brent" was going to have a heart attack.

Oh man, I would've never even said the mustang untill I saw the most recent episode: the 1971 Dart (I believe)... The black and green one... oh man, I think that's the nicest looking car i think i've ever seen... I normally hate that color green, but for some reason, it just looked WICKED on that car...
that guy is so lucky...lol

It was a 1971 Challenger, loicdesdvina.
shareMy favourite is the Lance Armstrong Overhaul. I also like the pilot episode where they overhauled that junior emt's two-tone brown truck.

i like it when the did that guys car and that guy pretend to be scarface.
my favorite would have to be the "Rustang" episode(Blue '66 fastback). That car barely had enough solid metal holding it together before crumbling on itself. It's amazing that in 7 days, that much work can come together on such a rotted carcus and bring it back to life.
sharemy 2 fave episodes were:
"The Monte Fuego" with the 1970 Monte Carlo. I LOVED the sound of that Vortech supercharger when they revved the engine up during the reveal.
and
"The Challenging Mopar" with teh 1971 Challenger. the Challenger is an all-out, over-all bad...ass...car! they did a great job by repainting it in the classic "Legend Lime Green", and the reveal was awesome with the way they brought it around the corner like that.
I'd have to say the el camino, but thas probably just cause i've been in love with el camino's since i saw one as a little kid, and i surf. :P also i was plannin on restomoding mine similar to that two tone paint scheme, but have now quit on that, fear of people saying i ripped off the show, and working on a red/black paint scheme similar. i wish the overhaulin team would do some overhauls in Hawaii. haha.
shareThe 65 Mustang Fastback and the 69 Road Runner.
They stand out in my mind as favorites.
my favorite is when they did chip's '49(?) ford pickup

I agree with you Links 123, also I will admit I got a little misty eyed when Chip said "Is this mine? if ever it's ok for a guy to get teary eyed, that was the moment because you saw just how much that truck really meant to him.
"My fingers are swelling....." "Really? Let me see, I love sausage!"
my fav was the 1950 or was it 1951 ford in the first season it was bada#$
sharejust about any one other than the stupid magnum they did. that was a complete waste of time, money, and resources.
shareThat's true, I forgot about that one... Freakin' stupid, there should be a law against overhauling a brand new car.

Yeah i thought that was a great one! but my fave is the ol van that the guy had since new and was just in need of a new lease on life-i think this the hippie show where everyone had the big hair and tye dye shirts-Chip had me cracking up the way he looked "far out man" lol-but this show was good and it was more uplifting than some of the othere where they tug at your heart so just a good change and funny! Chip really is that good! no once else has the midas touch...
shareMy favorite was the white 69 convertible mustang that they made black with the red ghost flame stripes and the black interior and the swapped out the rear panels with ones from a Boss.
That one was sweet!
