I know a lot personally, but I have no auto shop experience. All past jobs have been machinist/tool and die shops. NOT a trade to go into for life (the Advent of CNC and imports...)

Disagree Monomer - Try to find a shop that does precision one-off projects or prototypes or reverse engineers parts for local manufacturing outfits that don't want to buy expensive parts from Europe.
Nowhere to be found. Everybody is set up for large volume runs.
My kid has a backlog, and doesn't even have a shop yet. His boss lets him work late on his own and charges him only for machine-time, or he does it at school at night. You'd be surprised how much money you can make.
