AUTOMOTIVE TECHNICIAN
RED SEAL AUTOMOTIVE TECHNICIAN / FABRICATOR

Dustin is a highly passionate and motivated Automotive Technician, lifelong automotive enthusiast, and fabricator. From a young age he keenly observed his dad build an assortment of projects including custom cars and trucks. This was the genesis and inspiration to his career in the automotive industry.

At 21 years old, he completed an engine and transmission swap in his 1988 Buick station wagon with a modern fuel injected small block LS and 4L60E transmission. He built the engine with a high-performance cam, and also fully rebuilt the transmission. The wagon is now turbo charged running 12 PSI of boost. You will probably see it around town, however it was also featured in the movie Deadpool 2.

Dustin’s goal is to soak up as much knowledge as possible under the mentorship of J-Rod, and work to be the best automotive technician and custom fabricator possible for a successful lifelong career in the industry.
