Fabricate, weld, and problem-solve custom applications when required
Install modern drivability upgrades and support modern engine conversions when
appropriate
Maintain a clean, safe, and organized work environment
Document work and communicate progress, parts needs, and recommendations clearly
What Success Looks Like
Plan work and parts ahead so projects don’t stall
Document work and welcome inspection at key stages
Think critically and creatively when solving custom or non-standard issues
Keep workspace organized so anyone can understand job status
Communicate early if additional time, parts, or support is needed
Qualifications
Generalized knowledge of automotive repair and component installation
Well-rounded knowledge of classic vehicles
Ability to diagnose, fabricate, weld, and wire vehicles
Strong mechanical aptitude and diagnostic mindset
Electrical and wiring experience preferred (willing to train the right person)
Solid foundation of skills with the ability to work independently
Professional communication skills and strong attention to detail
Reliable transportation to and from the shop
Passion, patience, and pride in building vehicles the right way
Experience
Preferred: 5+ years of automotive or restoration experience
Will consider the right candidate with strong fundamentals and the right attitude
Physical Requirements
Ability to perform physical duties associated with automotive repair
Must wear required safety equipment (eye protection, hearing protection, steel-toe
boots)
Ability to acclimate to a shop environment
What We Offer
Competitive hourly pay based on experience and skill
Flexible scheduling (part-time or full-time)
Clean, professional shop environment
Opportunity to work on iconic classic vehicles
Long-term growth potential for the right technician
A team culture built on craftsmanship, accountability, and respect
