Was round at the bro in laws place last week - he has one of them giant plasma TV things and just got Foxtel pay TV.

I was a bit sceptical when I found out - you pay for the content AND you still get the damn adverts that go with free to air TV!

So anyway - after some searching he finds us a few of these shows filmed I think in Floriduh, of guys building custom chopper motorbikes! (CS something?).

Heck - this was damn fine entertainment - We watched a couple shows and man the bikes they created from scratch - amazing stuff.

After that we found a couple shows of some "chop shop" where some other guys do custom makeovers of some guys auto (paid for bye his missus) without his knowledge!

It was a policeman - who'd lost his dad and this ol car was the last thing he had to remind him of his dad, and the crew set this poor guy up - basically stole his car and did the full rebuild/ restore and chopped the top to make it into a convertble.

It was a real funny show - and the car turned out a real treat!

So I'm thinking is there a pay TV show where they do up Ford F trucks?

Anyone point me in the right direction?

Cheers!

That show trick my truck is starting to do some pickups and other things instead of just tractor trailers.

One of the other shows you were talking about may have been Overhaulin' with chip Fooze.

Theres so many motorcycle shows now its hard to tell what the other is. Theres Orange county choppers, west coast choppers, choppers inc is in forida

I haven't seen any shows specifically geared toward Ford trucks on TV, but check out the podcast, Motorz.tv. I think you may like it. Its also on iTunes.

Overhaulin is definately the show you are referring to where Chip Foose "steals" the person's car and then makes it over. Real classy show and work but they try to stick with late model vehicles instead of newer one's and I've only seen a few trucks and those were late 60 models.

I think based on your other post about hoods, that you are trying to get ideas about things to do the exterior of your 250.

Your best bet is just searching the net for photos of custom F250's because the build-up shows devoted to them just really don't exist. They aren't as sexy to the general public as choppers and sports cars.
