Australian Rod and Custom, also known as Parts for Hot Rods, traces its roots back to the passion and love for hot rods of its founder, Ron Pate. Ron, having retired from the world of Panel Beating, embarked on a journey fuelled by his enthusiasm for hot rods. What started as a personal endeavour to build his own hot rod soon evolved into a business dedicated to crafting and customizing hot rods for fellow enthusiasts.
As Ron delved deeper into the hot rod community, he identified a significant gap in the market for quality and well priced hot rod parts. This realization led him to venture overseas to explore the parts manufacturing market. Through his travels, Ron forged enduring relationships with reputable suppliers, who remain integral to the business to this day.
Ordering parts from Australian Rod and Custom is a seamless experience. Customers can conveniently place orders online or over the phone, with a remarkable turnaround in postage. The company’s commitment to accessibility extends to its 24-hour interactive website, allowing customers to explore and order parts online any time of the day or night
At Australian Rod and Custom, quality is not just a promise; it’s a commitment. We offer an extensive range of high-quality parts and components, carefully sourced from trusted suppliers. Additionally, our commitment to excellence extends to our onsite warehouse & facilities, where our full-time mechanic specializes in crafting precision 9 Inch Diff builds, ensuring that every component meets the stringent standards set by the hot rod community.
As the founder, Ron Pate has decided to enjoy the benefits of retirement, handing the reins of the business to long-term manager Denis Gerrard. Hailing from a family deeply rooted in hot rodding, Denis manages the day-to-day operations.
Backing Denis is a reputable team with over 100 years of combined experience in the automotive industry. This experienced team includes Ron’s daughter, Kristie, along with Chris in the warehouse, Chris in customer service, and Alan in the workshop focusing on our customised 9 inch Diff Builds.
