Almost 9 years ago Curt Ukasik decided it was time to get out of the electrical contracting business and turn his hobby in to a career... 

Curt’s passion for automobiles started when he was a child, and continued to grow out of control from there.  In the early days, Curt had built many highly customized mini-trucks for himself and for friends.  Once people had seen the quality of Curt’s work at shows and in magazines, he started being approached and asked to build cars and trucks for others.

Curt finally decided to take the next step and make his hobby his life. The business venture started at an existing car audio shop in McMurray PA, but quickly began to outgrow the space at hand. Looking at the business from a demographic point of view, Curt wanted to move the business north, and set out to find a building that would fit his needs.  After looking around for a while, 380 Northgate Drive was the chosen location that would become RPM's home.  

Fast forward 8 years and the business is consistently growing.  RPM currently employees 14 full time employees who all have the passion and desire to build one off custom vehicles.  If we are not at the shop, you can find us traveling all around the US going to shows or taking care of our clients.

RPM Hot Rods is located in Warrendale PA, 15 minutes north of downtown Pittsburgh and just minutes from the Pennsylvania Turnpike and Interstate 79.  

The shop features a large area for fabrication and a separate showroom where final assembly often takes place. 

Our staff consists of 14 full time employees who put their heart and soul in to what they do every day. We take on projects of all shapes and sizes from mild to wild.  

If you are in the area, please give us a call or stop by, and we will give you a tour of the shop and a sneak peek of some of the vehicles we are building.
