Custom Diecast Replicas was born in 2003, specializing exclusively in modifying off-the-shelf diecast models. CDR was the first company in the diecast industry to do the following modifications to a diecast car: cut a roof off  and create a convertible, create a custom hood from scratch,create a convertible from a diecast fastback, create a sedan from a convertible and CDR was the first Company to create a concept car in diecast for the retail market. Jon Wood has been an artist in sculpture and fine art for many years and decided in to apply his own talents and creative touches to the diecast industry. His skills have been developed to the point that he can make  almost any replica, even those once thought impossible. Only here at CDR can see some of those modifications!
