Our Story

Hood Famous Projects started with a simple love for cars and a big dream to connect the gearhead community on a global scale.

What began as a small group sharing custom builds and tuning tips quickly grew into a network of car lovers, from weekend wrenchers to professional tuners and show-stoppers. We realized the power of bringing together people who see cars as art, freedom, and a way to make a statement. And so, Hood Famous Projects was born.

Our Mission

At Hood Famous, we celebrate car culture in all its forms. We’re on a mission to highlight the projects, stories, and skills that make this community shine.

We believe everyone’s journey is unique, and every build tells a story. Our goal is to give these stories a platform, inspire new ideas, and create a home for car lovers to connect, learn, and grow.
