Bad Chad Customs

Chad Hiltz builds an elegant one-of-a-kind coupe using spare parts, recycled metal, and a rusted out 1939 Studebaker Commander.

Looking to expand his business, Chad takes on a commission to build a custom 1930s-style delivery truck, starting from a discarded 1934 Desoto Airflow coupe.

Chad builds a custom bare metal truck to give away at his Rockabilly car show; with the tightest of budgets, the team builds the truck from scratch, and Chad's wild ideas keep them in overdrive.

Chad creates a space-age drag car out a station wagon; commissioned by a local eccentric to create a crowd pleasing ride, Chad and the team imagine a car suitable for space travel, with wings, in-line seating and capped off by an 18-inch bubble.

Chad races to finish his wildest creation to date, a custom dragster with a bubble top, wings and inline seating; with just hours until the promised reveal, Colton's cut rate supercharger threatens to derail the entire build.

Chad takes on an important build, an elegant 1930s speedster to debut at a charity golf tournament; using a 1935 Hupmobile, Chad builds his custom creation from scratch, hoping to drum up future work from the tournament's high-end attendees.
