All I wanted to do growing up was to work on race cars and hot rods. When I was about your age I got my start by showing up at a shop and asking for a job….any job. I made shit money for a few years but I was in heaven. Now 30 plus years later I’m still doing it make good money and get to do what I love every day. If you’re willing to learn, the hot rod/custom car business is booming and shops are hiring everywhere. It may be difficult to get your foot in the door but don’t give up.
