The Purple Garage is a student-led automotive project club at Clemson University based at the CU-ICAR campus in Greenville, SC. Our focus is hands-on learning through real work by reviving and improving previous Deep Orange projects. Each week, we team up to diagnose issues, plan repairs, and turn ideas into progress, whether that means troubleshooting electrical problems, tackling mechanical fixes, or refining systems one step at a time. We’re professional about how we work, but we keep it fun—because building cars with friends is the point.
