Colossal Motorsports primarily focuses on vehicle styling services, including wraps, tint, lighting, audio, and other aesthetic and customization work. In addition to automotive services, the garage functions as a flexible, multi-use creative space. This is where I want to expand and repurpose the business/space. The shop has hosted photography shoots, film productions, art installations, pop-ups, and private events, and I believe the space has significant untapped potential for further creative and community-driven programming.

This is an opportunity intended for a creative, entrepreneurial partner rather than a traditional employee. For the past year, I have been running every aspect of the business myself, and I am now looking to bring on someone who is interested in helping operate and expand the business in a meaningful way.

The ideal partner could contribute in one or both of the following areas:
(a) helping manage and grow the existing automotive styling business (client intake, operations, hands-on services, social media etc.), and/or
(b) helping expand the garage’s use as an event and creative space through workshops, private events, art programming, photo shoots, and other initiatives.

In terms of structure, I am open and flexible. There would be no required buy-in or upfront cost. One potential arrangement could involve splitting the monthly rent (approximately $3,000 total) and sharing profits evenly, though all terms are open for discussion depending on interest, skillset, and level of involvement. Historically, the automotive styling business has generated strong months netting around $10,000 while being operated solo, and I believe there is meaningful upside with the right partner helping to scale both services and event-based offerings.

I am ultimately looking for someone who is excited by the idea of building something unique and is interested in a collaborative, creative partnership rather than a conventional job structure.

About Us

My name is Jack, and I am the owner of Colossal Motorsports, a Brooklyn-based automotive styling and creative garage space that I have independently operated for the past year. During that time, the business has grown and built a strong reputation, with approximately 150 five-star Google reviews and consistent client demand that has begun to exceed what I can manage alone.

The garage is located in Red Hook, Brooklyn, steps from Red Hook Tavern. It is a large, well-lit space with parking and a bathroom, making it suitable for both hands-on automotive work and a wide range of creative uses. My long-term vision is to build a modern, community-oriented garage that blends high-quality automotive craftsmanship with a versatile venue for artists, makers, and entrepreneurs.

At its core, the organization values craftsmanship, transparency, collaboration, and creative experimentation. While the automotive styling business has been the primary revenue driver to date, my broader goal is to diversify and grow the space into a hybrid automotive and creative hub.
