Automotive Restoration Technician

Please send resumes VIA email and include examples of experience related to this role.

About the Role:

We are seeking an Automotive Restoration Technician to lead our restoration and repair efforts. Our shop is dedicated to the preservation of classic driving experiences. We don’t just "fix" cars; we curate them. You will be responsible for everything from ground-up mechanical restorations to the fine-tuning of complex vintage fuel systems.

Primary Responsibilities:

• Mechanical Restoration: Full teardown and rebuild of engines, transmissions, and suspension systems (including brakes) for pre-1996 European imports.
• System Diagnostics: Troubleshooting Lucas "Prince of Darkness" electrical systems and Bosch K/L-Jetronic fuel injection without the aid of a laptop.
• Precision Tuning: Expert-level synchronization of multi-carburetor setups (SU, Zenith-Stromberg, Weber).

Quality Control: Conducting thorough road tests and final inspections to ensure every vehicle meets "driver-plus" standards.

Required Expertise:

• The Jaguar Specialist: Deep familiarity with the Jaguar XK straight-six and V12 powerplants.
• The German Precisionist: Proficiency with air-cooled Porsches and classic BMW/Mercedes chassis.
• Fabrication & Repair : Ability to problem-solve when parts are NLA (No Longer Available). Welding is not a requirement but is a skill that will be rewarded.
• The "Paperwork": Meticulous documentation of hours, parts, and build photos for client transparency.

Why Join Us?

• Work on some of the most iconic cars in automotive history.
• A clean, well-lit shop environment with specialized vintage tooling.
• Competitive compensation based on "old world" skill sets that are increasingly rare.

- We are a small team, so there are no extra hoops to jump through to get things done.
