DownShifters Model Shop

DownShifters Model Shop Commission services from Shaving, Paint, BMF, Engines, Slot bodies to Full builds and detailing. I simply love building. Your happiness is first and foremost.

I started building model cars around 1975-76...as I come from a model building family. My brother, Mom, Dad & Uncles all built models long before I was born. Throw in the fact that I have bikers, truckers, drag racers, mud racers, truck pullers, road racers & off road racers in my circle of friends and family...it's safe to say I am a gear-head. I have done my fair share of racing and wrenching mo

st of my life...which believe it or not has helped with my model building. I do tire realism, engine builds, engine details, slot car bodies (builds), commission builds of every level. If you want a build of your own 1:1 vehicle, dream car, someone else’s vehicle or just want me to go to town on a “what-if” build. If there is anything you need, give me a shout and we will figure out the best way to go about it.

Welcome to all the new followers. My apologies that I haven’t been as active as I’d like to be. Life has a way of getting in the way sometimes. Please feel free to ask questions.

Hello everyone out in model land! I am back up and running (on limited supplies) so, right now I am booking builds…this will go from making your tires realistic to engine detailing to full commission builds (slot bodies & static builds). So, if you are in need…give me a shout. Love, peace and axle grease!

Sorry for the long delay ladies and gentlemen...sometimes life has a way of getting in the way. The wife and I are moving the end of next week to Oregon so, there will be another delay. Will be back at the bench soon. My stash is all gone but for a few kits...still need to get supplies/aftermarket stuff but, Downshifters Model Shop will be up and running soon. Love, peace and axle grease.
