When we last left Chad Hiltz and his Green Goblin cab-forward custom 1962 Chrysler Newport, it wore a coat of primer, but Chad had yet to iron out a number of details – like exactly how the door would hinge up, the paint, and whether he would make it to the Boston World of Wheels show as planned. From the looks of things, though, Chad has managed to pull it all together in just the nick of time.

From perusing Chad’s Facebook page, we see that he did indeed paint the Green Goblin a pearlescent green with Hot Wheels-inspired metalflake silver interior and engine bay/bed.

As one would expect for a radical custom, though, Chad didn’t stop there. Metalflake red scallops now tear down the flanks and roof of the Goblin, and a lighter green highlights the roof pillars and zoomie openings. He also molded some red-tinted acrylic (in his oven) for at least the side windows, and went with a simple black-and-white scheme for the custom-built and upholstered seat. Moon caps on the wheels are understated, yes, but fit the Goblin nicely.

Oh, and before spraying the paint, he reworked the nose to do away with the beak and the Mercury grille inserts.

There still appear to be a few details to attend to, but Chad has a truck and trailer lined up to take the Goblin to Boston for this weekend’s show nevertheless.
