MasterTech Expo 2023 to host Chip Foose!

Picture
Chip Foose, award-winning vehicle designer and builder, will join the second annual MasterTech Expo, scheduled March 5-8, 2023 at the Mesa Convention Center in Mesa, Arizona. Foose plans to conduct a design-inspired session to explain his creative process, as well as and share details about his ascent to the pinnacle of one-off vehicle designs, working with TV shows and inspiring the next generation of designer/builders in the automotive aftermarket.

In his design session at the stage on the exhibit floor, Chip will take the audience through a series of live designs and sketches while overhead cameras display his work on audience-viewed screens. The session is scheduled separate from the event’s educational workshops and exhibit floor schedule, which means it’s open to all attendees and exhibitors.
Join Chip Foose in a special design-driven session that highlights
​his process and choices of materials, colors, and styles.
●  ​See Chip sketch and draw live automotive designs on stage
●  ​ Understand the influence of design elements in his award-winning builds
●  ​ Learn how Foose elevates the subtle nuances and smallest details in vehicles
●  ​ Review the final Overhaulin TV build with the whole interior team

As a highlight of his session and along with the interior build team, Foose will provide MasterTech Expo attendees a unique and immersive look into his methodology by revealing a behind-the-scenes look of TV’s final Overhalin’ build (2020), Shaq’s 1964 Chevy Impala. “Chip is going to take the audience through the
intricacies of the design elements, providing thought processes, tips and techniques that are typically valued as a designer’s trade secrets” comments Bryan Schmitt, event founder and CEO of MasterTech Expo parent company Mobile Solutions.

Of course, known for his friendly approach to fans and followers, Foose will be available for autographs and
photos following the design session at MasterTech Expo. This is an exciting opportunity to get inspired from
one of the industry’s most talented vehicle designers and builders.
​
MasterTech Expo’s objective is to bring tremendous value to attendees with like-minded professionals, brands,
education, tools and products from every segment of the industry. “At MasterTech Expo, we are committed to
embracing the entire automotive aftermarket community. We were thrilled that Chip Foose is aligned with our
vision and is excited to join us at MasterTech Expo to share his knowledge with other professionals” remarked
Schmitt.

​​MasterTech training opened my eyes to new fabrication methods and motivated me to be better at my job every day. If not for attending multiple MasterTech sessions over the years, I’d never have had the opportunity to join the team of talented professionals at West Coast Customs. I’m looking forward to attending the MasterTech Expo in March 2022. The collaborative, hands-on nature of the training is a game-changing career boost and I highly recommend it.

​​Attending past MasterTech training classes was an amazing experience! A clearly outlined curriculum, fabricating a class project, and the exposure to incredible tips and tricks from some of the best talent in the industry. MasterTech training guided us every step of the way and the manner in which topics are taught really made learning new fabrication techniques super simple! I am looking forward to attending MasterTech Expo to expand my learning, as well as rub elbows with fellow professionals with whom I’ve made lifelong friendships! MasterTech Expo is going to be a great experience!
