In the Cars movies, Ramones House of Body Art is home to a great car artist the one and only Ramone. So when it came to providing inspiration and styling inside Ramones shops at Cars Land in Disney California Adventure park, we turned to the best in the business Chip Foose.
Chip was the perfect choice in many ways. Chip not only styled Ramones various paint schemes for the Cars movies, but as owner of Foose Design in Huntington Beach, Calif., hes world renowned for his designs of customized cars, paint and wheels. Every time weve needed an expert to help us out with car colors, wheel designs and other specialized designs, weve turned to Chip. Hes spent so much time with us that we consider him an honorary Cars Land team member!
Our guests will be able to experience Ramones House of Body Art in two places inside the land downtown Radiator Springs where its a merchandise shop, and inside Radiator Springs Racers where we go to get our paint job freshened up as we head for the big race. Chip and his talented team of pinstripers Dennis Ricklefs, Brad King and Jeff Styles have been on site with us recently, adding the finishing touches to both of these locations. It has been so much fun to watch them transform the spaces into something Ramone would be truly proud of. Take a look at this video and youll see what Im talking about.
Of course, we want our guests to feel that it was really Ramone who added all these special touches to our land. Now you know it was really my good friend Chip Foose who was behind it all!
