Chip Foose is one of the most respected and loved true geniuses in the industry that I'm aware of. He's humble, respects others and their opinions, and if you've ever watched Overhaulin you can tell he's the real deal. I'm honored to have an email address that starts with Fooserules......you can guess the rest. I would love to meet him someday.

@killingtime2night I agree with your assessment of coddington, but I got the impression that he was in constant pain...physical or psychological, I don't know. That mitigates my assessment of him somewhat. But maybe I'm wrong, maybe he was an asshole.
