I spent years as an auto mechanic in Orange County, California. The owners of Orange County domestic car dealerships lived in several of the choicest homes at the end of the Newport Peninsula. For quite some time I worked as a machinist rebuilding Volkswagen air-cooled engines at a factory in Santa Ana, California. At first, the shop was mostly fundamentalist Christians, like the owner. When he sold-out in around 1977 to a group of partners, the lines quickly filled with Hispanics.
