Car mechanic I

Changing engine is a small matter for me ...For the early car owner, there were no auto repair businesses. If the owner himself maintained his vehicles, he would seek out a bicycle mechanic, machinist, plumber or blacksmith to repair or fabricate parts.Wealthier car owners employed chauffeur-mechanics as servants who would drive and maintain their vehicles. These employees were much more independent than the carriage drivers and footmen they superseded and, rather than adopting a servile relationship, used their specialized knowledge to lever better pay and privileges from their top hat wearing employers.
