About Us

Concept

To provide a service for specialty vehicles and a shopping experience for the customer that has an easygoing atmosphere with a laidback environment through honesty, integrity, open communication and teamwork. To create the most attractive works of art and put them on wheels. Jellybean Hotrods is an exciting business that addresses the need of having a custom fabrication shop and a full service auto repair facility on the same premises. This allows us to take a vehicle from concept to a driving work of art. These distinct but complimentary services benchmark customer service, something that the industry is not known for having. Jellybean Hotrods is on the cutting edge of the Resto-Rod market and is pushing the envelope in the latest trends, with fuel injection, 4 wheel disc brake & power steering conversions.

Facilities

You've heard of shops burning to the ground due to various reasons. We take many precautions to avoid this from happening. We are located in a concrete building with a storefront for fire & security reasons. Due to the amount of bad wiring on old cars we disconnect all batteries unless the vehicle is being worked on at the time. Care is taken during all procedures that could cause concern. Our location is easily accessible.
