Our Story
Built From The Ground Up
McQueen Augusta started as a side project by Korey Anderson — a full-time IT professional who spent his own money and countless nights after work building a custom Lightning McQueen-inspired Dodge Challenger, one part at a time.
There was no investor, no marketing team, no guarantee it would work. Just a bet that Augusta families would want something different for their kids' parties — and that a business built around genuine community outreach could actually last.
Today McQueen Augusta operates under Tatty LLC, still founder-run, still showing up personally to most events — because the point was never just the car. It was always the people around it.
Mission
Driven with Purpose. Powered by Community.
What We Stand On
Community First
We show up for outreach and schools whether or not there's a paycheck attached.
Real Craftsmanship
The car, the show, the whole experience — built and maintained by hand, not outsourced.
Honest Business
Clear pricing, real insurance, no surprises — treat every family like it's our own.
Behind The Scenes
Want To Be Part Of The Story?
Community
The Work Behind The Car
This isn't the flashy part of the business. It's the part we care about most.
Community Volunteering
Compass for Hope
Compass for Hope is a local nonprofit supporting our neighbors experiencing homelessness. Every week we show up as volunteers — bringing the car alongside their work not for attention, but to stand with our community and show this business wants to be part of it. No cameras, no press release. Just a standing commitment we keep because it matters.
School Program
Drive Kind • Be Kind
Our anti-bullying assembly program visits Augusta classrooms with one message: drive kind, be kind. It's funded by community sponsors, not school budgets, so no school ever has to choose between this and something else they need.
Nonprofits & Charities
Discounted & Free Appearances
We set aside discounted and, where we can, free dates for verified nonprofits and charity events throughout the year. Reach out and tell us about your organization — we'll work with what you have.
