Will Lockwood is an engineer, restorer, fabricator, and builder who is part of the team at Kindigit Design where they build incredible custom rides. No doubt you’ve seen their Motortrend TV show Bitchin Rides, now in its seventh season and nearing 100 episodes. Once out of the Army, Will met Dave Kindig and when Dave opened his own shop he asked Will to join him and Will’s been there since 2003. His passion for automobiles and RC cars goes back to his childhood and he says that his vocational classes in high school, taking auto body and mechanics saved him and helped him focus better on his other classes in school. That training became valuable as he worked on Abrams tanks in the Army during Operation Desert Storm.

Looking for season 8 !!!!
Get rid of Kevin, he’s an idiot and buffoon…
Thank you for saying that. I don’t watch the show anymore just because of that clown. If I wanted to listen to I want to be comedian, odd turn to another channel. Total distraction from the show and I’m sure if I don’t watch it anymore, there’s others that don’t as well. Good call.
Always love listening to the “Mad Scientist”! 👍🏼🙌🏻
Love your work Will.
Just watching the replay of the big blue Lincoln.
Lovely car.

Will your a true talent at what you do , and help make the show what it is successful. I have to believe the thing that helped Dave get going what the door handles and that had to be your work as an engineer. Thank you for your service to our country. Keep up the good work and don’t let success go to your head, like so many do. Dropped any cars lately lol.
My husbands favorite show in the world is Bitchin Rides and he watches all the time Hr made the comment I don’t know what Will Lockhart gets paid but it’s not enough, he is a genius. The episode he was watching was a fabrication of a window and he was amazed by the workmanship. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
KevDog does get on my nerves at times, I believe he has talent because of his alterations of his vehicles however please cut back of the comic actions, very distracting to the rest of the production!
Will yes I love the out of your box thinking. I do have a question up your alley. The rag tops on the early Miata NA allowed for a decent roll bar and package tray. The NC on does not. Do you think you make a hybrid top the Na style fold up with latch of NC. With a smaller NB glass back widow that zips partially out. To clear the roll bar rear upside down v that goes from main hoop to down riggers. For the NC. And what would it take.
Love to see Will and most of the crew BUT. THE SHOW REALLY GETS LOW CLASS WHEN KEVDOG AND DAVE DO THE PLAY TO THE CAMERA
