Texas Metal

Hace veinte años, Bill comenzó Ekstensive Metalworks especializándose en elevación y descenso, y al día de hoy tiene una prueba con un Ford Rat Rod de 1928, una camioneta Ford de 1942 y una camioneta C10 de 1975.

El legendario jugador de la NFL, Earl Campbell, llega con las partes de un Cadillac de 1949, y el equipo se siente honrado de crear algo desde cero para esta leyenda local.

El equipo trabaja para reconstruir el Cadillac de 1949 de la leyenda de la NFL Earl Campbell. Además, personalizan una camioneta para un motociclista discapacitado.

El equipo renueva un Buick del 34 de la vieja escuela en un auto moderno. Tras reconstruir la carrocería y hacer un marco personalizado para su Cadillac 49, Earl Campbell desafía al taller con algo de último momento.

Un cliente habitual quiere reformar un Ford Ranger del 68 en casi perfectas condiciones. El equipo responde a las expectativas y cambia el chasis, añade un interior hecho a mano, reconstruye la caja de carga e instala un motor Coyote 5.0.

La subasta Mecum llega a la ciudad, y Bill exhibe por el barrio cuatro vehículos, con resultados impactantes. El equipo construye un buggy tubular personalizado. Además, una jaula indestructible requiere todas las habilidades del equipo y algo más.

Bill y su equipo fabrican un chasis personalizado larguísimo para un Denali del 2020. Ektensive repara un automóvil diésel que se emplea en carreras profesionales de aceleración.

El ensamblaje de camionetas tiende a ser más grandes de lo planeado originalmente, por lo que no es de extrañar que una Suburban de 1971 sea aún más grande cuando se le hace un interior y una suspensión elevada personalizados. Un Kodiak de 2006.

Los chicos le devuelven la vida a un Lincoln de 1964 con la instalación de un motor Coyote de última generación y la reparación, a mano, del interior del vehículo.

With dozens of awards on their walls, crowds of adoring fans, and a several-months-long waitlist, this Texas team always has their hands full with rowdy customers, challenging builds and tight timelines.

Bill and the team work their magic to customize a brand-new 2022 International wrecker; now that the pristine 1960s Willys Jeep has been quartered, they use imaginative fabrication techniques to make it whole again.

Bill is still being put to the test with a 1928 Ford Rat Rod, a 1942 Ford pickup and a 1975 C10.

An Ekstensive favorite, a 2001 Hummer H1, needs some serious reinforcements; Bill changes things up on his completely custom, all-tube buggy by borrowing technology from monster trucks; Bill puts his daughter to work customizing her 2020 Challenger.

The Houston Astros enlist the services of the Ekstensive team; Bill works his magic on a 1968 Chevy C10.

Bill and the gang split a nearly perfect 1960 Willys Jeep into four pieces to make it longer, wider and meaner.

Actor John Cena is amazed by the transformation of his British classic '69 MGC into a custom-built masterpiece with all-American trimmings; the team has to get creative building a chassis and bed for a '60s Jeep Willys entirely from scratch.

After John Cena makes a surprise appearance at the shop, Bill and the guys begin to customize John's small 1969 MGC to be a perfect fit; a new customer wants a handmade lifted suspension on his 1920 Denali 2500 as a gift for his wife.

Bill takes the '68 C10 into uncharted territory with over-the-top fabrication and an epoxy river bed that tests their skills; a 2018 Ram dually can't handle heavy loads, so the team comes up with a unique setup to get it back to work.

Bill has never really liked the body of the 1974 Cadillac Eldorado, but when a client wants hers radically redesigned, Ekstensive blends old and new to make it cooler than the rest.

When the outside doesn't match the inside on one of Bill's favorite muscle cars, a 1972 'Cuda, the team hatches an innovative plan for a modern, handmade redux; Bill and the team tear down a 1952 GMC wrecker to build it into a tow and show truck.

The team custom builds every part for the first vehicle Ekstensive has ever built entirely from scratch, the heavy-duty, 1,500-horsepower buggy of Bill's dreams; as they finish one enormous build, they take on their next one, John Cena's Bugatti 57C.

Bill is hard on his trucks, and that's especially true of his Baja-style 2017 F-150 race truck; after one too many jumps, Bill is ready to wake it up one more time; the team designs a one-of-one suspension for a 1952 wrecker truck.

Bill refuses to hold anything back on the '68 C10, as it finishes in a Texas-sized flourish looking unlike anything they've ever customized before; the '60s Willys Jeep overcomes a major hurdle, as the team must fabricate a wider front end by hand.

A new customer challenges Bill with his fully customized '37 Ford Coupe, which he wants to be restored to its factory look; as one of their biggest builds yet, the '53 tanker proves again and again that the bigger the truck, the bigger the build.

Bill loves a good challenge, especially when it's a build he and his team have never done before; while they transform a one-ton 2022 F-350 into a Baja-style Raptor, they rebuild a 1964 Rolls riddled with structural damage from the ground up.

Bill thought he'd done it all until a 2022 Ford Lightning rolls in and becomes Ekstensive's first custom air ride with an all-electric drivetrain; the team stays old school by dropping a classic '52 Wrecker to the floor with a supercharged LT4.

Some builds are just worth the wait. With a longer, wider cab, custom everything and a 6.2 Hellcat, Bill and the team finish strong by transforming a pristine 1960s Jeep Willys truck into something bigger, meaner and louder than anything on the road.

An antique 1953 tanker tests the team as one of their biggest builds to date, while a family golf cart gets radically remade into a wheelie poppin', high-speed electric demon.

A beloved '64 Rolls-Royce with a rusty secret rolls into the shop; the team finishes final fabrication as they prepare to ship out the '53 tanker truck.
