With the amount of work we have lined up the person we put on is going to learn a lot real fast. We have some major projects coming in and its a great chance to get in at the start and learn.

Looking for someone a bit closer mate sorry...
The job will involve all aspects of auto restoration and custom building, but to start with just some light workshop duties and helping out with anything that we have going on.
