Lance Armstrong/Sheryl Crow

Champion cyclist Lance Armstrong received a personal gift after he won his sixth Tour de France: a stock GTO that he's always wanted. His girlfriend, singer Sheryl Crow, gave him the car, but the press took the surprise out of Sheryl's gesture when they reported on the gift before Lance even got it. So, Sheryl had to find a new way to surprise Lance. She hooked up with Overhaulin' and together, everybody took the GTO to a new level of cool.

In Lance and Sheryl's hometown of Austin, Texas, team captain Chip Foose went to work with K.C. Colvin, Steve Chappo, Tony Genty, Jeff Farina, Jorge Lopez, Richard Wood, Jim Griffin and Roy Pigford. Lance's longtime friend, John "College" Korioth, was also in on the deal, stealing the car from Lance's garage and scheming with Overhaulin' to keep all the pranks on time and outrageous. The end result was a shocked and dazed world champion, now driving a first-class GTO, the likes of which the world has never seen.
