Foose Design 1957 Chevy Bel Air Restomod

[@philipcarthy2977]

This man is just pure genius, everything he touches turns to brilliance.

[@benrodriquez1728]

Fantastic beautiful 57 Bel air convertible, good job,!!!

[@RonThompson-pugsly69]

Chip doesn't build cars. He creates art...rolling art! No one creates automotive art like Chip Foose. We are all very fortunate to live in a time along side an automotive art master like Chip! Thanks for letting us witness your creations, Mr. Foose!!!

[@garyseaton4619]

Truly one of the most beautiful 57's I've ever seen...

[@davidp2888]

With the exception of the wheels it looks like the car wasn't even touched, and I mean that as a huge compliment to Chip and his team. The man is an artist.

[@nottherealjk]

Exactly! They get the car and are like, "So what did you even do?"

[@whodahellru8124]

I _love_ these subtle modifications!

[@gordonstroup1741]

I agree, the wheels are as ugly as a mud fence. I realize that the large wheels and the short sidewall tires are great for taking corners fast, but how often do you think that the new owners will drive it like a Corvette? Ha, more than likely, Never! Also, ride quality suffers exponentially! My opinion.

[@rollin19]

You guys know nothing about wheels on old cars. Must of the time people look a compete classic car with original hub caps and never say anything about the rims. If they do change the wheels and they look right,a thousand people will say they look good.

[@rollin19]

They are the same exact rims the car had but they've been enlarged to be fitted to the proper portion of the car.

[@Snakebloke]

Now _THIS_ is pure Americana and I love it. Would look strange driving it around London, but it's beautiful.

[@johnreynolds7308]

Fantastic job Chip

[@adamrichards3174]

The entire car is gorgeous (that paint is an absolute stunner), but that engine... that engine may be the prettiest I've ever seen. WOW.

[@theariesexperiment4642]

Hard to beat a day where you go and pick up your Foose designed Bel Air and the man himself takes around the block in it. Dreams I tell ya.

[@johnbutler4235]

best car CHEVY ever made AMERICAN CLASSIC

[@ringfazer]

The 57 Bel Air was always my dream car. If I had one, it would have to look exactly like this. And no different! In Germany I would be the king on the streets. Spectacular work. Praise to the whole team and stay healthy forever!

[@harkamalrayat]

Wow! Respect for you sir ✊🏼 👍🏼

[@Challender]

Such quality work! Chip and his guys definitely do it right.

[@davidsnyder2000]

Making people’s dreams come to life. No better feeling getting what you want and a great experience having your car done by Chip and crew👍❤️🙏

[@REYKING-Muzic]

Chip you and your team will always be the best no matter what "!!

[@garbonsky]

I love that they drove it away

[@Ski_zaBoi1776]

Wow!!!!!! Chip always kills it on each and every build

[@thecarguy7238]

I”ll be honest. I don’t usually like a lot of foose designs stuff, But, he knocked this one out of the park! Kept it’s originality, but upgraded everything. That’s my favorite combination..maybe He should do my Ranchero next 🤫😆

[@bhaimohamed5249]

Wow Chip Foose absolutely amazing an avid fan of yours and your dad Sam Foose I love how you bring the goodness of the car out that makes a statement I loved the imposter off course brilliant idea Corvette chassis

[@abevigoda3149]

Holly cow, it looks fantastic! My 57 Bel Air is over 95% original, the paint is dull, matte, but I don't dare to change a thing in it, I will definitely consider getting another one just to have it restored by Mr. Foose just like this one, amazing job as always.

[@w41duvernay]

likesd they way Chip made the LS3 look like a stock 265 Chevy SB from the 57 year. excellent work.

[@tonygunk1886]

In this world true perfection does not exist, but damn if you guys don't come unbelievably close. Well done as always!

[@BigTweez9]

Amazing work as usual

[@Pure_KodiakWILD_Power]

another nice one. especially with the top down.

[@kalijasin]

You guys do really good work. 😀

[@flexjay87]

Chip's artistic Eye, and mind, is a God given talent . Well done !

[@kylestewart8049]

proof that Chevrolet used to design amazing cars.

[@williamd4707]

You have it right, use to design amazing cars. Use to is the operative word.

[@timvanasen6711]

Chevy still builds amazing cars I own 4 Chevy's & got the privilege to ride in a 2021 stage ll yanko Camaro proven to be the moden day best all around performance musclecar...

[@cavnz]

And they say money doesn't buy happiness! If I had the money to buy this I would be incredibly happy.

[@merendobereglidditz9304]

Chip Foose's cars are shiny, perfect, flawless, beautiful jewels.

[@bourne2cruise1963]

A 57 Chevy without white wall tires is like a jet without wings!

[@albertvainaa]

Exactly!

[@timvanasen6711]

Beautiful 57' Chip, I have a cobalt blue cabriolet with continental package numbers matching LS3 327 a beautiful cruiser that packs a nice punch 😉👍

[@ron5118]

I like restomods, but I bet it was hard to tear down this nice original. Nice car, work of art.

[@Ticonderous1]

Old mate Foose could design a toilet seat and it would look killer ... Dude is Da Man !!!

[@GizGaz52]

That was totally RAW! Chip, without you these awesome cars wouldn't get built! Cheers!

[@mikestrucks]

What a beautiful car ! They did an amazing job as usual....😬🙌🏻👍🏻

[@gbjkt29321]

You and your team really work with all your heart...really owesome !!!

[@rickb9238]

When money is no object, you too can have this kind of a car. Beautiful master craftsmanship.👍👍

[@steventrostle1825]

I had a 57 Bel air 2 door HT back in 1960, yep I'm older than dirt. I always loved the styling of 57"s but also thought that the convertibles looked slightly off balance. As usual after Chip and his great crew finish Any car it looks FANTASTIC> THANKS!

[@peterviceroy1592]

Straight, clean and crisp look takes this build to the top level. My complements to Chip and team.

[@Ahmedgkhalifa]

Chip Foose I am an admirer and have been following you since your early episodes of overhaulin, as a designer yo stand out and match my taste to every single detail, as a fabricator you are a perfectionist, nothing less than the best would make you satisfied. As a human you give kindness a new meaning so a lot of respect and admiration are coming your way from Cairo Egypt from my humble self I wish to be driving a w 113 pagoda with your signature on side panel one day and although I may never see this dream come true I can not stop hoping.... please accept my hopes for an even brighter future for yo and your team.

[@valdomiropaganucci2713]

Fantastic Chevrolet show!!👍🏻👍🏻👋🏻👋🏻

[@TheTektronik]

The car looks like it just came out of the factory great work Foose designs.

[@DoubleRRestorations]

Now that's a 57 Chevy! What a great looking car. I love the wheels.

[@adnanlatif9007]

Chip & his team always does flawless jobs

[@jimikim203]

beautiful color ..

[@HOTWHEELSCOTT]

Love that it triggers the resto guys.... ❤️😀

[@henriqueoliveirajr1837]

Awesome color ! Beautiful 57 Chevy Belair ! Great job ! Congratulations ! Best regards from Brazil ! Henrique 😎👍

[@arlanmaxwell9932]

Coolest car ever built!!!!!

[@ODGColornChrome]

Chip you and your guys are master craftsmen! Amazing Job!!

[@allantaylor3288]

Absolutely beautiful, another masterpiece from Chip Foose, like a good wine only gets better with age😊👍

[@alexbrown1995]

That engine bay is superb.

[@poplaurentiu4148]

Very clean, paint job, gaps.. Foose is perfecting every thing he touches, awesome.. art on wheels ! Also Love his Show and i'm from Europe ! ;0)

[@RS-Amsterdam]

Chip=King , You guys are AWESOME Thanks for sharing

[@milla698]

Chip you did it again that's an amazing looking 57

[@david662211]

Another Awesome Foose Build. Love It!!!

[@ZosoStar]

Wow Chip, another Beautiful Car! Love that color! Wish I was working with you! Your friend Dennis Modica, WILD RODS...

[@Mister006]

The wheels needed to be a touch smaller. There's truly something special about white wall tires that complete an old-skool look.

[@gabrielregueiro3209]

The belair, one of my favorite cars, memories of my childhood

[@antoniohernandez7523]

CHIP FOOSE IT THE BEST AND ANYTHING HE TOUCH MAKE IT LOOK THE BEST

[@robertpradella6550]

Wow !This is so beautiful!

[@laohantun7404]

So beautiful and stunning.......guys....thanks for showing.....

[@dougreed9843]

What a beauty

[@Zelaznogsiul-63]

If I had the money, I would send my car to you guys to do everything. A guy can dream. Great video.

[@craigjorgensen4637]

I have nothing but the highest respect for Chip Foose and his crew but in this case I think they took a rare beautifully restored car and made it into something else! Sorry but to me, a great car was forever changed and A LOT of money was needlessly spent! I realize I’m in the minority with my feelings here but I think a rare and wonderful car was lost forever!

[@craigjorgensen4637]

Cobb Knobbler I disagree. This was a beautiful restored to new with NOS parts. It even had the rare 2-4BBL 283. I appreciate the upgrades and the skill and money that went into it. It is no longer, however a 1957 Chevy. It is something else. Better? Perhaps but no longer a 57 Chevy. Had they done this work to a run of the mill average car I would have no problem. What they did was unnecessary in my opinion. I am far from a purist but this one got to me,...sorry!

[@bodge6886]

He is probably the best rebuilder in the entire US❤️❤️

[@carlrice6989]

Chip has some Hardware like "Builder of the DECADE " hanging on a wall somewhere,,,

[@bigdaddyb6005]

Stunning! What craftsmanship.

[@leslieloughnan8249]

Love the colour. A beautiful car. Chip Foose and the team did an amazing job.

[@oktaytekin4560]

Wonderfull,wonderfull,wonderfull.

[@josephconsoli4128]

I've had a love affair with the 1957 Bel Air since I was about 5. I'm a total purists, but must say that is one mind-blowing resto-mod. Typical Foose masterpiece. My dream example though? A black convertible, red/silver interior, white top, totally stock and loaded with all the important drive-train options BUT without a single cosmetic add-on except white-walls. No bumper tips of any kind (I think the original flat "gunsite" disks look perfect), spinners, skirts, con. kit, right mirror, dual antenna's, or bumper guards. Just a focus on that perfect design.

[@manuelkougarvalderrama8506]

The car is exceptional.. 😁😁😁

[@stephenlacher587]

Luuuuuvvvvv those wheels! And that engine sounds so sweet!

[@RXRSawdustStation]

Beautiful work! Thank you for the video.

[@kenswitzer4133]

If only I could afford to have Foose finish my 1967 Camaro. Would be a dream come true!

[@pacodtm71]

I am in ❤️❤️❤️ for the Color. Best wishes from Germany 🤜🏼🤛🏼

[@SkypowerwithKarl]

Chip, do you ever mess up? Dang, you guys nailed it......again!

[@MWMTex]

I like what he has done - hell anything Chip touches turns to gold. That said, to take a perfect 57, all original, fully restored and to turn it into a restomod is criminal. Watching this guy, his wife and daughter's reaction was - well like hohum, its another car, so what, looks good, gee thanks, have a nice day.

[@LogueMotorsports]

Awesome job as always Chip!

[@silentwhisperstudios7808]

I miss the TV show that Chip was doing. Very cool show..

[@poplaurentiu4148]

I hear they will come back, (i saw a cool project -> a Shelby Daytona, he might do it on first episode..) i can't wait ! ;0)

[@dougmaxwell8789]

While I agree that this is an amazing customized rolling work of art, I think it's a damn shame they took apart a gorgeous original and complete 57 and left 80% of it on the shop floor. Considering the vast amount of new reproduction parts you can buy for a TriFive, they could have gotten the same result with a non running 'project car' and a stack of parts catalogs.

[@most-hated-inc]

You took the words right out of my mouth. Beautiful work, but a damn shame.

[@iammaximus614]

Well, 💵 ... 🗣👍🏽

[@cybair9341]

50 years in the future, car lovers are going to buy resto-mods and re-manufacture them to perfectly original condition. But still, they wont be real "original".

[@wdchopnfool]

I was gasping when I saw my all time fav car on the Foose block in such great shape..... But he kept it looking almost unmolested and made it a real driver. Starting with a project car costs a ton to get it into shape. Job well done in my book.

[@garrygballard8914]

Well guys if it was your car you would do what you want. Where these owners did what they wanted. And I'm with them. It's dam fine and if I had the check book, would do the same. To have a car with the Foose name on it, is ever better than having a Detroit original.

[@tykellerman6384]

Unbelievable... another fine project guys 🤠👍

[@tedrettberg6143]

My favorite Foose car yet!

[@jsh3234]

Way to go. Looks as though it was just restored. Perfect.

[@ibarra5854]

Nice and clean design love it

[@shinigamilee5915]

I like everything, including and especially those wheels. I think it's something new and people will need to get used to the idea.

[@MrLangleylad]

That color is amazing ! beautiful car

[@sashas8168]

Another Chip masterpiece!

[@Joe-wv7pv]

Love his style, so hard to tell what Foose has done to a car sometimes! You just know it’s better but not always why or how.

[@mixalis6168]

And people say, money can't make you happy !!

[@knytrydr73]

It can't, but it can get you an awesome car which is the same thing! LOL

[@Darrell1019]

:)

[@WilhelmWilder]

It can't, but the beautiful car that you buy with it...actually can

[@rollin19]

Money can't make you skinny that's for sure! That's why the average man can't fit into a classic car because in the 50's the cars were made for skinny guys!

[@TheTektronik]

It is used as means to get to what makes you happy.

[@spookydog6959]

you and your crew are the , What a job well done

[@toneyfast1582]

Best car builder in the business chip foose

[@dougreed9843]

Absolutely gorgeous ! ! !

[@zacherykesler8508]

The exhaust system sounds perfect

[@charlesherrick7400]

Just perfect in every respect. Very, very very...well done.

[@jameshoberg1609]

Simple but yet amazing team Foose . That must have seemed like a side job for you guys because you put out so much amazing goodies. Thanks for doing what you do for the people that pay and I am a big fan of Overhaulin and also . Any car designed by Foose would be a keeper for The Collector. I really want one I can beat the snot out of but I can't but great jobs guys everything you do is awesome behind a great leader

[@steepskier5301]

Beautiful!

[@johntilson2535]

You know, money pretty much buys everything. Except perfection. Only Foose can deliver that!

[@paulk8716]

This is very eerie!! This is the same exact car I have in my next life when I actually have money!!😂😂😂😂😂

[@Lu-KN]

Awesome car, avesome craft.

[@garrygballard8914]

Wow !!! Is an under statement. Wondering what the bill was ? It would be worth it what ever it was.

[@SARSteam]

And I thought a 57 Chevy cannot look better than what it is... Awesome work guys...!!! Can I please have one as well ? :D
