Auto Jobs?

Zieke · 04-27-2010, 12:21 AM

Im in the military and i love it.
However, my passion has always been working on cars.
And im always thinking of what to do when im done. be it in 4 years or after my 20.

we've got a lot of people on here so ive got a question.

Can i make a good living in the auto industry?

I would love to have a job where i can restore all kinds of classic muscle cars. but i do love working on all types of vehicles.

ive also heard of some government contractor jobs working on police cars and stuff like that.

Any advice would be appreciated. thanks

you can if you do the right thing, If you go to the right shop & stay away from the wrong ones.

PNWCC has alot of members that has contact with several of the local restorers & to lot of the local guys

I make a living working on cars. I love my job its mostly just normal cars, tune-ups, oil changes boring stuff. Then occasionally we get fun cars in and it makes all the boring stuff worth it. To answer your question yes you can make a living working on cars. Find out where you want to live ask around for the good reputable shops then start applying.
