Come be a tard! Well, you clicked this either because you want to work for us or just want to see what the "tard" thing is all about! If you'd rather skip to the job requirements and read the history later, click here. It is a short story. Years ago, before we really were an "official"
business, it was just David, his trucks and a few customers' trucks.
David never really thought it would be a full-time shop so he never
was able to hire full-time folks to work with him. As a stop gap
measure he hired a series of kids, or adults that acted liked kids,
to help him get though the daily grind of shop life. This about There has been more than a few trials and tribulations over the past two years at ULC but we have weathered the storm and are back and busier than ever (we never really left, just hid out)! We need a few good people to come work with us and thought we would put the info up on the web site to see who we could draw in. The qualifications are pretty simple; you must love cruisers and like to work. We don't do traditional mechanical work, all of our work is to restoration quality and involves a lot of time, detail and frustration to get it to the standard we have set. We don't expect you to be a genius or to be the world's best mechanic; you need to be willing to learn and be very flexible. We have found that folks who do not have a background in traditional automotive shops seem to do better in the ULC environment but everyone is welcome to apply.On the average day we start at 8am or somewhere close to 8. You might work on a FJ60 front axle all morning until we realize we need some weird part that needs to be ordered so then you might switch to running down to the paint store then prepping some parts for the '66 FJ40 frame off to be painted. We do lunch around 1pm with Harold's BBQ being the current favorite. The afternoon might be spent rebuilding some late model 40 seats then pulling the transfer from a 62. Before the day is over around 6, one of us will need to ferry some trucks over from the shed and then maybe run the OBD II on a ?97. There is a lot of stuff on a lot of different trucks that needs to be done. At any given time we have 15-20 Cruisers that need major work in the shop and we work on them all. If you ever wanted to learn the entire line of vehicles ULC is the place! We only work on cruisers! We hope that you have your own set of hand tools but we have all of the specialty tools required for cruiser work as well as sandblasters, parts washers, hot tank washers, welders, presses etc. Almost all of our shop equipment is Snap On and we can help set you up with an account to build your own tools. While we do not do any production welding we do a lot of custom fabrication on everything from bumpers to roof racks and SOA conversions. Knowledge of welding and fabrication would be helpful but is not required; we can teach you. We are very willing to have folks move to the Atlanta area to work with us from out of state. We would be willing to set up a contract to ensure that everyone feels comfortable making such a large move. We pay very well and are always willing to discuss profit sharing and other incentives with the qualified candidate. The job requirements are:
