IF you could keep the shop full, you'd make a killing. Big IF.
Even keeping a generic brake job only shop full would be tough enough. But imagine two lifts, a couple of lathes, and a well stocked auto parts store close by. One guy could do 6-8 brake jobs a day easily if he had someone up front to deal with customers, the parts store driver, the books, etc. Like a wife.
Probably clear 200k reported a year.
But ya gotta keep those two hoists full, with a backlog.
