Just curious to see what kind of reaction I’ll get
I recently quit my job at the Bridgestone Racing Academy due to poor management after almost 3years on and off. I have been looking for a job in the custom automotive field for awhile now but it seems jobs for this don’t get advertised.
I was a parts fabricator and most recently trained in engine building at the B.R.A. as well as a chief mechanic for the F2000 cars
I have excellent fabrication skills as I made lots of custom parts and tools for the cars, also manual lathe and manual mill experience along with MIG welding (mild steel) and TIG welding ( mostly mild steel and aluminum but also some stainless) and Brazing. I also did maintenance on the F2000 cars including but not limited to CV Rebuilds, breaks, clutch, valve lash, alignments, Frame repair, etc… As stated above I was trained in building Ford 2.0L motors for the F2000 cars from bare block up, including all vital measurements, I currently have 4 motors running strong and reliable
I have experience in other automotive areas as well as I have been working on cars for as long as I can remember. I’ve done engine swaps, clutches, re-end swaps, wiring, basic maintenance, etc. My most recent project was a custom turbo setup for my SOHC 2.4l 240sx where I made my own turbo manifold and aluminum FMIC intercooler pipes and exhaust and also worked with the fuel system. Stock the car is 140 engine HP after I was finished it was dyno’d 181whp/213wtq @5psi and est. by way of math to be 220WHP w 240WTQ @10psi (was running 10psi before selling it) This is one of my real passions, making something stock even better by using whats there and not just swapping engines.
I am asking if anyone has any connections with a job or knows anybody in the field looking for someone like me, any help would be greatly appreciated
I feel my skills are slowly wilting away working at a quick lube shop , and my frustration level is rising not being able to find anything
If anyone can help I do have a resume available upon request
Thank you for looking
P.S. If your reading this Ben ask Dave if he knows anybody looking or if Canaska needs help?
