Texas Metal, the reality television series that focuses on custom vehicle builds, has not been officially canceled but has not aired new episodes since 2020. It’s unclear if the show will return for a new season.
The show, which premiered on November 7, 2017, on the Motor Trend network (formerly Velocity), was centered around Ekstensive Metal Works, a custom car shop in Houston, Texas. Owned by Bill Carlton, the shop specializes in creating one-of-a-kind vehicles by fabricating and modifying cars and trucks to fit the unique visions of their owners. Over three seasons, viewers got an inside look at the creativity and craftsmanship that goes into these custom builds.
Despite its popularity among car enthusiasts, the show’s future has been in limbo since the last episode aired. There has been no official announcement from the Motor Trend network or the show’s producers regarding the cancellation or continuation of the series. This has left fans wondering whether they will see more of Bill Carlton and his team’s impressive work.
In the absence of new episodes, the shop continues to operate and showcase its projects on social media and at car shows. Fans of the series can still follow Ekstensive Metal Works’ latest builds and activities through their online platforms. The lack of new content on television may be due to a variety of factors, including changes in network programming strategies, production challenges, or shifts in viewer interest. However, without a formal statement, the exact reasons for the show’s hiatus remain speculative.
