The final creative meld of surf toys and surf wagon was truly breathtaking.
As the rebuild went on, surfer Tyler Hatzikian created custom boards to ride on the El Camino’s tano cover. Of course, when Mylan went to our fake impound, he was turned away - the car’s in his dad’s name. The tough assignment: making the El Camino into the coolest of surf-wagons. Working as insiders, his folks Vicki and Tim knew that the tow truck that grabbed Mylan’s car (“due to tickets”) was OVERHAULIN’, delivering the car to the A-Team of Chip Foose, Bryan Fuller, James Ferguson, Carl Lutes, Craig Chaffers, Revo, J.C. He’s one of those rare teens who’s both ultra cool and as nice as they come. Mylan goes surfing every day, getting to the beach in his rusty old 1977 El Camino. Is it possible that his friend Dick is actually a car thief? Of course not but now we've got Chuck back to the museum to reveal his new, overhauled Ford. When Chuck gets a call from Dick Messer asking him to come down to museum, Chuck finds cop cars and those two pesky insurance agents again when he gets there. Lies, all lies, and all part of the ruse to keep Chuck away from his car and keep our team working. While the team works round the clock on the car, hosts Chris & Courtney pose as insurance agents from hell and show up at the museum accusing Chuck and Dick of stealing the car to commit insurance fraud. But, it's not long before Chuck gets the call from his friend telling him that his car has been stolen from the Petersen Museum. Time to get to work! We've only got a week. A quick call from Dick to Chuck asking if he can borrow one of Chuck's cars from his collection, a '50 Ford Coupe, for a display at the Petersen is all it takes for our Overhaulin' A Team to get their hands on this shabby classic. His true love of the automobile and its history has meant he's developed a friendship with Dick Messer - who runs The Petersen Automotive Museum in Los Angeles. But what does Mat see in the garage when he's invited to take a tour of Robby Gordon's Speed Shop? No way can that be his old truck! Will all the pain, and pranking, that Mat's endured be worth it once he sees his new search and rescue vehicle?Ĭhuck de Heras is a car collecting aficionado.
Mat thinks he's never going to see his beloved pickup truck ever again. It seems that tow truck guy who took Mat's truck is actually the leader of a car thief ring!
CHIP FOOSE OVERHAULIN CARS DRIVER
Eagle Scout Mat has never gotten a ticket in his life but with some help from his father Jim, as our insider, away goes Mat's truck to our Overhaulin' garage.Īnd little does Mat know but we've got Nascar driver Robby Gordon helping the A Team out, too! Chip Foose, our Overhaulin' A Team leader, starts designing the plans for one amazing search and rescue vehicle while we continue to play a few more tricks on unsuspecting Mat. And we need to get a hold of that truck! Our host Chris Jacobs poses as a tow truck operator who comes to Mat's house to tow away the truck because straight-as-an-arrow Mat has too many parking tickets. Mat's dad, Jim, contacted the Overhaulin' A team because he would like Mat, who is always doing nice things for others, to have something nice done for him for a change. He also drives his grandfather's old '88 Chevy pickup truck that's seen better days. Mat Mershimer is a straight 'A' high school student, volunteers in search and rescue and is an Eagle Scout. The time comes to show Jeff his new ride - complete with a new engine, custom paint job and totally redone interior. We even have one of our team members order parts for Jeff's car - from Jeff at the auto parts store! Hmmm, how many lime green Chevelles are there in Huntington Beach anyway? The fun doesn't end there though as we pull a few a pranks on Jeff to keep him on his toes and to keep him guessing as to what exactly is going on with his car. No problem! Jeff's boss is our insider who's going to pretend that he needs to borrow Jeff's Chevelle for a bogus infomercial. Our "Overhaulin' A Team", led by designer Chip Foose, is ready to get working and turn this ratty rod into a rad rod but first, they need to get the car away from Jeff. Jeff's very cool boss at OPG is Tony and he can see the potential not only in Jeff but also in Jeff's rather ratty '71 Chevelle. Jeff Miller has dreams of singing rock and maybe doing a little sound engineering but for now, he works the counter at Original Parts Group, an auto supply shop in Huntington Beach, California.
