Welcome to Engel’s Coach Shop

I have been in the horse-drawn vehicle and wheelwright trade for over 45 years and have been a custom restoration business, focusing on traditional horse-drawn vehicles.  As I enter into retirement years I am endeavoring to document my trade via videos on YouTube.  With over 460 free videos posted, and growing, I’m hoping you will enjoy viewing the various aspects of a trade that has been integral to mankind for millennia.

 I still have a number of vehicle projects I am completing and will be sharing with our YouTube community.

So now you can visit our shop from the comfort of your home and watch numerous projects as they progress!  Many of our viewers vacation to this area and are welcome to stop by as you travel through our Big Sky state.   We enjoy your visits!
