Winnipeg, MBEst. 1979
Work Vehicle Upfitting in Winnipeg, Done Right
Custom Coach Works has been building organized, purpose-built work vehicles for Manitoba tradespeople and fleets since 1979. Catalog, custom, or hybrid — we work with your vehicle, your trade, and your budget.
Why It Matters
A Disorganized Work Vehicle Costs More Than You Think
Searching for a tool that should be right there. An extra trip to the supply house because something got buried. Opening the doors at a job site to chaos.
It adds up — in time, frustration, and the impression it leaves.

What Changes When Your Rig Is Dialed In
What tradespeople say once their vehicle actually works for them.
Spent two hours hunting for my pipe bender on a job site. Ended up borrowing a buddy's truck to finish — and lost the client. That was it. Eight months after the upfit I haven't lost a single tool, and customers actually comment on the setup when I open the doors.
8 mo.
Zero lost tools
~$400
Saved per week in time
Opening the van doors in front of a customer used to be embarrassing. Now it's basically a sales pitch.
I was skeptical about the cost. Paid for itself in the first three months just from not replacing lost tools.

Common Questions
-
How does the process work?
Tell us about your vehicle and trade, and we'll show you catalog, custom, or hybrid options with real pricing. You approve the plan before we start. We give you a firm timeline up front so there are no surprises. -
What's the difference between catalog and custom?
Catalog installs use pre-engineered Adrian Steel components configured for your vehicle and trade — proven and cost-effective. Custom builds fabricate components to your exact specs when catalog parts won't fit your workflow. Most customers end up with a hybrid. -
Do you work with all vehicle types?
Yes. We upfit cargo vans (Transit, Sprinter, ProMaster, NV), pickup trucks, and other commercial vehicles. Not sure if your vehicle qualifies? Just ask. We'll tell you straight. -
How does pricing work?
Accessories start at the most accessible price tier. Trade-Ready packages are mid-tier and bundle a full Adrian Steel catalog install. Custom builds are top-tier and priced based on the design. You'll get a real quote — no 'call for pricing' runaround. -
Do you offer financing?
Yes. Financing options are available. Ask about it on your first call. -
What does the installation guarantee cover?
If something fails because of how we installed it, we fix it. Normal wear, damage from use, or tradesperson-level abuse isn't covered — but our workmanship is. No fine print.
Still have questions? We'll answer them on the call.
