THE OFFICIAL BAD CHAD CUSTOMS CHANNEL

Step inside a small, hand-built shop where imagination has no limits. Chad Hiltz — Bad Chad — is a true automotive artist, turning scrap metal, odd parts, and pure creativity into rolling masterpieces.

No fancy tools. No big budget. Just resourcefulness, grit, and a mind that never shuts off. From boat parts to airplane pieces to whatever turns up in the shop, if Chad can picture it, he can build it.

This channel is about more than cars. It’s about problem-solving, old-school skills, and passing on hard-earned knowledge inside a real working garage. Follow along as raw ideas are transformed into one-of-a-kind builds — built from nothing, one piece at a time.

❄️ Quick update from the shop ❄️

Due to a major snowstorm that hit Nova Scotia overnight, we’re without power at the shop today. That means no hands-on work on the Dart for this episode.

Instead, we’re sharing something a little different tonight; a visit with our longtime friend Jim, who many of you will recognize from past videos. This was filmed on New Year’s Eve, and Jim gives us a walkthrough of his shop and talks about what he’s been working on lately.

We hope you enjoy the change of pace, the shop tour, and catching up with a familiar face. Regular Dart builds will be back as soon as power is restored.

Thanks for sticking with us.... stay warm and enjoy the video! 👊

Emily here — thank you so much for the warm welcome in tonight’s video!

Episodes will continue Monday–Friday at 6PM AST, but we also have a special video dropping tomorrow (Saturday) at 6PM AST. I’ll introduce myself a bit more, but the video will focus on Colton and Chad answering some of the questions I’ve pulled from your YouTube comments and live chats over the past few weeks.

Hope you can tune in. Goodnight ✌🏻

Merry Christmas to everyone in the Bad Chad and The Lad community 🎄

We’re still on tonight at 6PM AST with a new episode—cutting the back of the 62 Dart to get the rear window fitting where it should. Thanks for all the support, and we hope you can hang out with us for a bit this evening!
