About Us

SHOPRAT METAL WORKS is a family-owned and operated business, started by Abe Wine in mid-2011. Now with the help of his better half Angie they strive to make Shoprat Metal Works a household name. Abe grew up in his grandfather's big rig shop, taking the values he learned there and putting them forth in SRMW. He has been involved in many different forms of motorsports. Everything from Nasa racing circuit teams, tractor pulls, and pro mod door-slammers, to a demo derby. Shoprat Metal Works has slowly grown while getting a swift kick in the ass after Abe co-hosted “Truck Night in America” for the History Channel. "Truck Night" hit the top 10 for Thursday night cable television and has been seen around the world in over 10 different countries.  Abe has also had the honor of judging car shows for the NRA at their headquarters in Fairfax, Va and for Hot Wheels on their 50th-anniversary tour. Wanting to offer the best service that we can possibly deliver, whether it's building custom parts for the Ford dent sides, to providing quality parts for other builders across the country. Doesn't matter if it's a full build on a vehicle or putting on a show for the masses. We put our absolute best effort forth every time to provide the best experience possible! We don't believe in perfection, yet we strive for it...
