***About Black Wolf Automotive Specialties
We’re a well-established restoration and custom automotive shop based in Woodbridge, VA. No dealership drama. No flat-rate games. No corporate politics.
Just a tight-knit team doing high-level work the right way — with the best tools, materials, and standards in the industry.
We’re growing fast and disrupting how classic automotive restoration is done.
*** The Opportunity
This is a paid apprenticeship where you’ll train to become a Classic Automotive Restoration Technician.
You’ll learn:
- Classic car maintenance & repair
- Fabrication & restoration techniques
- Shop systems & professional workflow

This role starts from the ground up.
That means you will:
- Clean bathrooms (yes, toilets included)
- Take out the trash
- Sweep and mop
- Keep the shop clean and organized
- Maintain tools and shared spaces
- Support technicians however needed
No one is “above” this work here. A clean, organized shop is part of professional excellence — and earning trust starts with handling the basics well.
If you’re too good to clean a toilet, this won’t be the right fit.
If you understand that mastery starts with discipline and humility — we want to meet you.
We don’t expect experience.
We do expect effort.

- Take pride in doing things the right way
- Can work well on a team
- Have a valid driver’s license with a clean record
Bonus points if you:

- Consistent weekly pay (every Friday)
- Monday–Friday schedule (5-day work week)
- Air-conditioned shop
- Health insurance (Blue Cross & Blue Shield)
