Ep 3. Hot Rod From Heaven

In this episode of Bad Chad Customs, titled "Hot Rod From Heaven," Chad and his team are tasked with creating a one-of-a-kind hot rod for a client. But this isn't just any client, it's the family of a man who passed away and left behind a stash of vintage car parts that he had collected over the years. The family wants Chad to incorporate these parts into the design of the hot rod, making this build an emotional and personal project for everyone involved.

Chad begins by inspecting the parts and determining which ones are usable and which ones are not. He then sketches out a design for the car, taking inspiration from the vintage parts and incorporating modern elements as well. The design is sleek and elegant, with a deep blue paint job that contrasts beautifully with the chrome accents.

The team begins work on the chassis, welding and shaping the metal to fit the design specifications. They also start work on the engine, rebuilding it using some of the vintage parts provided by the family. As the build progresses, Chad's team encounters some challenges, including a misaligned exhaust system and a faulty transmission. But they work together to overcome these obstacles and keep the build on track.

As the hot rod begins to take shape, Chad and his team start to see the vision come to life. They install the wheels and tires, which are custom-made to fit the car's unique design. They also add finishing touches like the steering wheel, seats, and dashboard.

In the final stages of the build, the team works on the details, polishing the chrome and making sure everything is flawless. They test the engine and take the hot rod for a spin around the block, making some final tweaks to ensure that it's running perfectly. When the build is complete, Chad and the family come together to reveal the hot rod and pay tribute to the man who collected the vintage car parts.

Overall, "Hot Rod From Heaven" is a touching and inspiring episode that showcases Chad's talent and creativity as a custom car builder. It's a reminder that cars aren't just machines, but can be objects of great sentimental value and a way to connect with the past. So, the episode is a must-watch for any car enthusiasts who appreciate the artistry and passion that goes into custom car building.
