HEAVY METAL

In Southern California, there is a remarkable 29-year-old hot rod builder who has the full attention of the custom car world. His name is Justin Scott Padfield. He and his young team of very hip builders believe in the old-school ways of building cars. They simply drag a rusty heap into their 20,000 square foot garage and rip into the thing. The results: absolute show car quality. In this episode of RIDES, Justin Scott and his crew will be turning a '56 Chevy Pickup into a '56 Chevy Roadster. Justin Scott Padfield gives us a view that we all want to see on RIDES. It's a view that most of us will see as the stuff of true hot rod heritage - a place that is bathed in both oily grunge and pure American know-how.
