Chip Foose heads to NZ
CRC Speedshow is pleased to announce Hot Rod hall of famer Chip Foose will be appearing as the special VIP guest at the July 2019 event.
Foose has a staggering career profile that includes prototype and conceptual designing for vehicle OEMs, and the creation of speciality machines for film and television, the likes of Blade Runner, RoboCop and Gone in 60 Seconds.
Having started the television show “Overhaulin” in 2004, car fans were able to see his personal love for car design, and bringing Foose to New Zealand for the CRC Speedshow to share his knowledge and talents to a live audience has been a goal of the event for years.
The shows former owner Ross Prevette who has returned as operations manager has been working tirelessly in the background to bring Foose to the multitude of down-under fans.
“Basically, he’s a god in the car world," says Prevette. “If you know cars, then you know Foose. In simple terms he’s the Elvis of the car world and he’s coming here!”
With the show set for July 21 to 22 at the ASB Showgrounds, Chip Foose will spend two days talking to the people in the trade, and mingling with the fans on the 3M stand with posters and giveaways.
