Custom car creator Chad Hiltz grew up in a small town, but he’s always had big dreams, and a deep love for classic hot rods. Long on imagination but short on cash, Chad fabricated his shop by hand in his hometown and began building one-of-a kind custom cars, like his iconic “Green Goblin,” using basic tools, hard work, and his limitless ingenuity. Last year, Chad decided to assemble a team to turn his dream into a business. And now with growing acclaim, comes more builds and higher expectations.
