Bobo’s Rods & Customs

Your vision. Every detail considered.

Rob Bobo has owned and customized his own cars since 1986. He later acquired an established dealership through Bobo’s—a business founded in 1986 with 30 years of history at the time of acquisition. His personal automotive experience, dealership background and custom work through Bobo’s Body Shop shape his approach to every project, from the first design concept to the detailed specifications that guide the build.

Whether you’re starting with a donor vehicle or reimagining the car you already own, the project begins with your taste, goals and budget. We bring the design, sourcing and technical planning together so the finished concept feels like your car.

Your car—or the right donor

Start with a vehicle you already own, or let us help locate a suitable donor vehicle for the project. The starting point is chosen around your design, intended use and build requirements.

EXPERIENCE BUILT IN THE SHOP

Decades of personal ownership and customization, together with the cars built and customized through Bobo’s Body Shop, inform Rob’s eye for design and attention to detail. He connects the visual idea to the practical decisions behind it, from choosing the starting vehicle to specifying the components and finishes that bring the concept together.
