@29:47 The gentlemen talks about how the auto industry is "full of people who are miserable", I couldn't agree more. It seems the true techs and mechanics who really love what they do are getting harder to find by the day. I've worked in garages and as a parts salesmen. The common denominator that ruined it for me is peoples attitudes. I tried, I tried for years to put on a smile and while I could sell anything to everyone, at the end of the day it's either people had unexpected expenses for the car they didn't understand the costs of maintaining or they think that just because their is competition they can walk all over you and expect you to take it. I've quit working with the public in this regard because of this, which is a real loss to them as I know auto parts inside and out. I'm the kind of guy that will go the extra mile and really look at parts as to how and why they are designed, what is the history of the part etc. My current build is a 76' 924 and I have systematically went through almost the complete car and rebuilt it from the ground up. Because of the NLA list of many of the parts for this car, I was able to rebuild it from numerous parts from a half a dozen cars. Love what this movie is about and I hope Autohaus is here for a long time to come!
