    I’m 77 yrs old and have been a drag racer and hot rudder almost my whole life I currently own a 32 ford roadster and a 40 ford coupe I have been watching Chad since I first saw him on Discovery channel, while I may not be a fan of your designs I cannot say anything bad about your craftsmanship, the truck you are currently building is proportionally some of your best work. I have always said it would be a boring hobby if all our cars were the same variety is the spice of cars. Keep it up. Whitney Martin Dayton Ohio USA.

      Some of his cars are like cartoony Hot Wheels, but most artist go through phases. Chad seems to be entering a more mature/classical phase, and I'm really liking it.

    Can any one say its still a car ? The craftsman really did a great job in making a truck out of a car ! Jolene your videos really show how Chad works his magic ! 🎩 hats off to you both 👏! After the running boards will we continue on this or be moving ahead to another or picking up where we left off on a old project ? It doesn't really matter I love it all ! Thumbs-up Jolene and Chad 👍

    Nice job on the running boards guys .I like the way you can look at a panel and take it apart in your head to get the shapes to make a new panel and by the time you have finished it you can't tell that it's home made .jolene camera work is amazing for sure I could even see ìnside the cut that Chad did with the plasma cutter. Keep up the great work the both of you 👍 👏

    Enjoy your show and watch it religiously. Would love to be able to power watch individual vehicle builds. Do you have the vehicle builds in individual progression builds so that they can be viewed as builds from beginning to end. I have many friends interested in watching the builds but find it difficult to see the Bad Chad vision from beginning to end, especially the two Bugatti builds as they have been progressing over many years.
    Keep up the great work. Currently enjoying the Plymouth car to truck conversion.
