Wonder if he'll ever show up here One thing that gets me is if you need to pay taxes on said prize for these shows and lets they say amount to 15-20K on some of them...HOW IN THE HELL DOES/CAN THE INSIDER APPROVE THIS WITHOUT CONSULTING THE OWNER? Sometimes it's a friend doing it for a well deserving buddy.I've always believed these shows to be a farce because of that and people making up crap to get on the show. People that can afford to pay that kind of money straight up do not need to be overhauled by Foose. These guys can pony up the $ to get it done there, they can pony up the $ to do it elsewere. Am i envious...HELL YES! Maybe because i see many of us here that have struggled to get their cars done. **** i haven't driven mine for 9 years now and when i'm done i'll still just have a half assed car at best because of my financial situation.That guy said it was like winning the lottery. Well when you can afford to buy $15K worth of tickets i guess your chances are increased. One thing i can say is when someone does say nice car to me i can feel somewhat proud that i did it myself. Nice car Foose but they should work it out somehow for the real average Joe that can't get it done.
