When you have the desire to work on the best cars your company makes, then you have to find a drive similar to Justin’s. His path has taken him to a place that few reach. Not many people can say that they are the go-to Corvette guy in the area. Justin told me some customers will refuse service if he’s not available, and wait until he is. It tells me alot. His energy brings something new to the table, and I hope he continues on the fantastic path he’s on. Justin, thank you for the tour! If you enjoyed the tour Justin took us on, give him a Like on this video!

Smart guy seeing the demand with these new mid engine Corvettes. The buyers of these cars are nothing like a buyer for a pickup or daily beater. He’s setting himself up for a serious career working on exotic cars. This guy will be tearing apart a Ferrari in no time at all.

@markm0000 6 ай бұрын

@@Ectasied No I haven’t seen a GT3 getting worked on but I’m sure it’s like a spaceship with entire components that get replaced after so many miles knowing Germans… the situation in America is that Chevrolets were always very basic cars and trucks for normal people that any mechanic with basic tools can work on. That was true up until the C8 and this car is so different and complicated nobody that buys one wants a novice mechanic working on it and most mechanics don’t even want to work on it. Most dealerships aren’t even properly setup to work on these cars, they’re still struggling to work on EVs that Chevy sold a decade ago. The overlap between Chevy dealers and competent mechanics that can work on a C8 is very slim. Most guys at this level usually go work at European dealers or racing shops to get paid better. This video wouldn’t have gotten thousands of views if that wasn’t the case. American car brand dealerships are a terrible place for mechanics, they don’t get paid enough $$ for basic jobs on normal cars. Asking them to start working on a super car at the same $$ is not going to happen. This kid is either too smart for his own good or friends with the owner.

Because I’m new to your channel, I get to go through your back catalogue, which means there’s always one to watch at the moment. I love that young mans enthusiasm and pride in his tools and toolboxes. Interestingly I’ve heard ‘ladies feet’ referred to in a number of your videos, which we call ‘heel bars’ here in the UK. Having recently retired from a chief engineer position, one of the highlights of employing a new engineer was always looking at his tool kit…………….perhaps I’m not as strange as everyone used to think I was!! I love tools and even at 63 am still buying…………please keep them coming!!

I really appreciate how clean and organized his tools and boxes are. Some trucks cost as much as a Corvette these days and all that expensive leather needs to stay clean and not scratched just like the paint. The top hutch of the Craftsman box would make a great charging station for his cordless tools. I would definitely have those battery chargers up there and not tangled up in a drawer.

I give him credit when I was a tech at GM dealing with some of the corvette owners was like working at a daycare with a new mom dropping off her first born for the first day. What’s the most you’ve seen someone owe on a tool truck charge account? I worked with a guy that owed $18k on his truck account just tools not from a box. Meanwhile myself and a few others would pay cash and negotiate group buy prices from the tool dealers
