Since 2020, Hot Rod Headlee's has been revving up the world of custom builds, focusing on creating standout hot rods while embracing every make and model with enthusiasm. My lifelong passion for all things fast, loud, and wheel-bound has fueled our journey. Cars and trucks aren't just our business—they're our heartbeat.
Our roots run deep, from the thrill of childhood memories spent with my dad in the garage, working on our cherished 1947 Ford Coupe, to the intoxicating blend of engine hum and that unmistakable old-car aroma. Whether I was lying underneath the car, admiring its craftsmanship, or handing over tools, those formative moments ignited a lifelong obsession.
As our collection grew and our hands got dirtier, it became clear: our passion deserved its own stage. Enter Hot Rod Headlee's, where we embrace the mantra, "We can do anything." Whether it's a dream project or a unique vision, our team is here to bring it to life with meticulous design and unyielding detail. If you dream it, we build it—because for us, every car is a masterpiece waiting to happen.
Our guiding principle is, "We’ve never encountered a car we didn’t like," reflecting our commitment to embracing and appreciating every vehicle. At our shop, we welcome a diverse range of cars and pride ourselves on delivering precisely what our customers envision.
