Courtney Hansen Movies
Season Two of Overhaulin' offers 15 new episodes wherein host Courtney Hansen and famed hot-rod reconditioner Chip Foose uses a variety of scams and subterfuges to "steal" old cars and completely renovate them--to their delight of their owners, of course. In the season opener, the cars given the makeover are a 1968 Chevelle and a 1998 Mazda, owned by twin sisters. Later, a man who's never had the time or money to fix up his classic 1952 GMC is the willing "victim" of Foose's crack renovation team. Also, a motorist who thinks he's lost his 1970 Mustang while gambling soon learns that he's lost nothing and gained plenty; a woman despairs when her rusty 1967 Nova is towed away--until she sees what's done with it during its "impoundment"; and in the season finale, we're treated to another double-headed, as a 1964 Corvette and a vintage VW are rescued from the junk-heap. This season's obligatory "celebrity" episode finds Sheryl Crow conspiring with the producers to flim-flam Lance Armstrong out of his 1970 GTO, again for the purposes of transforming his venerable clunker into a "dream machine"! ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

Host Courtney Hansen and famed hot-rod reconditioner Chip Foose uses a variety of clever ploys and scams to "steal" old cars and completely renovate them to their delight of their owners in Season One of Overhaulin'. In the debut episode, a high-schooler's hand-me-down 1988 Chevy pickup is magnificently restored--after it is "impounded" for parking tickets that the poor kid never knew he had. Subsequent installments include "Museum Worthy", essentially a guided tour of LA's Petersen Automotive Museum; "Surfer Kid", wherein the title character's 1977 El Camino is given "the works"; and "School's Out", focusing on the salvation of a rusty old 1958 Bel Air. In addition, at least one celebrity is "tricked" and his car "tricked out": Ian Ziering, who is pleasantly shocked when his 1968 Camaro is dolled up and slicked down! ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
