Shoprat Metal Works / Winchester, Virginia

Built for the jobs that don’t come out of a box.

One-off fabrication, TIG welding, engine machine work, and hard-earned problem solving for builds that need a real plan.

01

Custom fabrication

Mounts, chassis details, exhaust, intake work, sheet metal, and parts for the ride that out the box parts simply wont due.

  • TIG-welded steel, stainless, and aluminum
  • Chassis, suspension, and mounting solutions
  • Exhaust, intake, cooling, and underhood work
02

Engine machine work

Measured, cut, cleaned, and checked with the whole combination in mind — not just one operation at a time.

  • Cylinder heads, blocks, and rotating assemblies
  • Valve jobs, seat work, valve guides
  • Performance-minded rebuild planning
03

Performance builds

The work between a pile of good parts and a vehicle that runs right, fits right, and holds together.

  • Engine and driveline fitment
  • Hot-rod detail work and finishing
  • Build troubleshooting and execution support

How we take it on

Bring the real version of the problem.

  1. 01

    Start with the job

    Send the vehicle, the goal, what is already done, and where you are stuck.

  2. 02

    Make a plan

    We look at what has to happen, what needs to be happen, and whether the work belongs in this shop.

  3. 03

    Build it right

    The right answer might be simple. It might be hard. Either way, it gets built with purpose.
