i'd be really warry if someone told me my supra had been with them for 1 week, i know it would look cool, but it'd probably be bright green with racing stripes a wing and a rebuild done by someone who's never worked on a 7m. Hell, they'd probably buy a new longblock from toyota and try to throw a diesel turbo on it and call it good with an msd ignition.


I think we are talking about Overhaulin' not Pimp My Ride :aigo:

How do you know? Maybe they would do research and have Driftmotion rebuild it..? lol Thatd be a long shot hope though.

The problem with your application is that your car is european,

Most of their sponsors if you hadnt noticed are like Year One. Mostly domestic american, non metric measurment cars the parts the like.

i've only seen them do ONE import, that was a civic and they gave it a gay looking paint job and a body kit, however, they did do a good job on the dudes engine rebuild.

I dunno i bet they wouldnt do it because of their lack of parts that could be accessed in 1 week for a jag, especially that v12.

i AM talking about overhaulin, and i've gone over it, there have been episodes where the insiders specificaly tell chip foose that the "mark" HATES stripes, then they immediatly went and put them on anyway, it looked awsome dont get me wrong but they did it. I dunno, if you can manage to get on the show, no matter what they do im pretty sure you'd be happy with the results no matter what. Overhaulin is the only show that seams to have tastefull work.

I've seen quite a few Overhaulin' shows off BT.. and there was one with a Pontiac GTO... which they put in a 461cube bigblock... :drools: They made the car from 68 look like something newer and cleaner than what comes out today out of car factories... and the stereo system setup was very neat... they don't go bling bling... they do quality builds in my opinion... Love their work.
