Join me at Adelaide Auto Expo 2025 for a massive one-take walk-through packed with tough Aussie muscle, JDM weapons, wild bikes and epic show builds. We check out everything from elite-level show cars and hot rods to street-driven monsters, plus a heap of mates and fellow YouTubers doing cool things in the scene.
You’ll see a 1971 HQ coupe running an LSX 454 & 2650 supercharger making over 1000hp, an E49 Charger with a Hellcat, elite Street Machine unveil cars, tough Toranas, Monaros, Falcons, classic Mopars, panel vans, JDM Skylines, Supras, Silvias, rotaries and more. There’s also some serious bike builds including wild V-Rods, custom Harley baggers and detailed show bikes.
We sit down with Claudio and his killa LSX-powered HQ, Joel with his award-winning 2004 VY SS “Iconic” Commodore, chat to Oz Rebuilds about his candy red VU ute build and YouTube channel, catch up with Charlie Dixon and his XR6 Turbo ute giveaway, hang with Low Standards, and talk hoists and sheds with Marty from Tough Lift – who’s been supporting Bad Q Garage with a hoist of our own. Plus shout-outs to legends like Air Chamber Australia, club displays, and so many awesome owners who actually drive their cars.
If you love Aussie car shows, LS swaps, Holden & Ford muscle, JDM builds, bikes and real street-driven cars, this one’s for you. Smash that LIKE, drop a COMMENT with your favourite car from the show, and SUBSCRIBE to Bad Q Garage for more Aussie car culture, shop tours, events and feature videos.
