Welcome to Double Z Hot Rods

Meet Our Team:

Greg Zulim

Greg has been working on cars most of his life. Greg also farms almonds, but when he scaled his operation back he was open to new business ideas. Building hot rods for customers was not his plan, it happened by accident. When his 31 model A won its class at the Grand National Roadster Show the word got around about what he could do with a hot rod. Individuals began to approach Greg and Russell asking about prices, they had no idea what to do so they decided to start their hot rod shop. Eventually the fruit packing sheds became hot rod shops. Many tools were bought and a paint booth was set up in one of the shops. Greg now plans on adding on with an old style gas station and assembly room for painted vehicles.  

Russell Zulim

Russell Zulim is Greg's middle son. Greg and Russell started this business in 2006. Russell loves to work on hot rods and is great with his hands. Just like Greg and Jimmy, he can do any job that a restoration or customization requires. He fabricates, welds, uses the english wheel, does body work, can lay out flames, pinstripes, and even paints. Russell enjoys learning as much as he can. Russell got his bachelors from Westmont College in 2007. He then went on to receive his Masters from Fresno Pacific University and did his thesis on the ever changing Hot Rod Industry. He has been working on cars since high school and has made a career out of it. The love of hot rods is just too difficult to turn down.
