  • We're here at Little Mick's Customs... Mick is hands down the Ed Roth of Australia. Bad Chad actually met Mick years ago at Gene Winfield's place in California but now we're inside his custom shop checking out his custom cars and art work. Watch til the end for the metal lesson on Mick's pullmax metal shaping tool 🤯

    I'm an Aussie and learned so much about our Aussie rodding and metal shaping industry, but this one here with Rod, takes the cake in my opinion, I could have watched, listened and learned from this man all day and I am well into my 70's. Love it, and especially to the connections to the legends of my formulative teen years; George Barris, Ed Roth & Gene Winfield were my car idols in 1962, when I used to steal my brother's "Hot Rod" magazines, because he would never allow me to look at them. Thank you for showing this one and I love his shed even more!

      Thats the main difference imo between him and Ed Roth. Roth was a fiberglass builder.
      The paintwork though is spot on

    I love seeing Chad talking with all these guys and I don't think Chad even realizes that each of them have told him that they watch all his shows. Chad's walking around in awe but the guy told him several times, I do it just like you... Chad is so humble it's awesome. I truly hope that Chad starts getting the accolades he deserves 🙏
    Jolene I keep saying thank you for being an amazing filmer you are filming history and I sure hope people watching realize what we are getting to see. I am blessed to watch this conversation 🙏 thank you Jolene.

    I have watched all the productions made by Chad and Jolene here in Australia, Mick was the most interesting and I think he is in a class of his own. A class that very few builders, painters could hope to achieve Worldwide.👌

    Little Mick is a Legend here in Australia, in the car scene, in the biker scene, he is a artist, he did the centre fold drawings for our biker magazine, just like David Mann did for EasyRider, he also did Air Brush art on cars and bikes, he's a true 1%, yeah Mick is the real deal, you can see Chad and Mick are in awe of each other, so cool for them both.

    @DavesKustoms Před rokem +1

    Chad, I've heard you say, that if if you had all the machines, you wouldn't know how to use them. A pullmax would be a game changer for you, you wouldn't know how to use it at first, but trust me when I say, it wouldn't take long. I was in the same boat until I got some of those fancy machines, but after playing with them long enough to understand how they do what they do, my world dramatically changed. Seriously, check into one, get one, and ruin some sheet metal, you'll wonder why you didn't get one sooner. Love all that you two do!

    I'm learning more about the Australian custom car scene and history from these Bad Chad and Queen Jolene CZcamss than I have from anything before and I'm an Aussie! so good work and thank you! There should be more content from the Australian scene as there appears to not be all that much apart from a few TV Shows like Rides Down Under: Workshop Wars (and on repeat) we need to make more TV shows ourselves to share what Australia is and has been doing in the car scene!

As an West Aussie custom bike builder, I have to say this tour of Chad and Jolene has introduced me to more East Coast builders and Kustom Kulture than I even knew existed! Big ups to you both...very glad to see that you're having such an enjoyable visit Down Under!

The matching car was as beautiful of a futuristic car that I’ve ever seen. Chad was correct in saying that it should have been on magazine covers worldwide. 🇨🇦☮️

    Chad I sure hope you are taking in this knowledge and you damn well better understand how freaking lucky you are to be there getting knowledge from a master like him. You are an amazing builder but with just a little more knowledge, man you could be top builder by far because just like he and others have told you while you are there that they can't believe how fast you build cars. I am unbelievably happy right now watching you guys together. I'm literally fan girling out right now and I will damn sure be saving a few of these videos because they are history and their will never be builders like you guys. Thank you thank you thank you Jolene
