a good frame man in a body shop does well, a painter who does a lot of volume will easily make 100k+

lol @ painter making 100k.

only if you're doing very HIGH end cars, and or you are actually painting for 8 hrs a day 5 days a week... which doesn't happen in even a stable economy.
(i know im getting flamed for ^ oh well)

my friend was a diesel mechanic for mac truck made over 50k a year and was walk on, he had education in autobody and got a job doing mechanical work lol (don't ask me how) He was definitly able, i would of thought he had to of got some kind of education or something for it but he never did lol, he ended up getting laid off about a year and 1/2 ago, i don't think theres alot of demand for any kind of mechanics right now.
