Hey My name is Tim and I am 18. I have a passion for Mustangs and I was wondering if anyone new of any place that has to do with Mustangs, that would be interested in hiring me within Sacramento area. I have grown up around Mustangs all my life so I know a little but not everything. I'm in the process of restoring a '69 Mach 1 also.

Lesson one: Go to college, get a degree, then get a job that pays well so you afford your hobby.

Lesson two: Don't try to make your hobby into work. You'll end up hating your hobby.

Lesson three: Wrenching on someones elses pile of crap is not a "dream job", except for perhaps Nascar, Forumla one, or similar pit crew.

And Lesson four: Avoid having your hobby car serve as your primary mode of transportation. This will ensure that you never have to fix your car in the parking lot of a pick 'n pull, kragan, or autozone on your way to, or from, your place of work.

lesson 6: don't screw yourself over by getting into credit card debt - buy everything you can with cash.
I learned this the hard way, and I'm sure others here have also....
Read lesson 2 over and over until it sinks in, because it is true! 67stang hit it on the head
