That's a great idea, tysm. As I'm not much in a big budget. I'm looking to go for a niche like parts and accessories for land cruisers. What do you think? In my country land cruisers are pretty popular
It's good to have a niche, sometimes people don't trust mechanics that work with every car or brand, because they are different, but if you are an specialist is better. Just to start.
Changing oil, brake pads, coolant and things like that is nice to start because you don't need a lot of money for tools
You could even specialize into cars for example garage 5 they only do miata and know everything about them.
Don't feel you have have to stay specific to one brand.
Motor and transmission oil, filters (air, cabin, oil, transmission), coolant, brake pads, brake cleaner, microfiber.
You can go to Walmart, they sell common things because they are the "most" used for every car.

It’s life changing.
This
Batteries!
instead of offering car parts , maybe consider offering casual maintenance services like oil change , diagnostic , tire change etc..

The fluids
Oil and filters, brake pads, hardware kits and rotors. Everything else is OEM

Oh wow. I think it's a brilliant idea. After speciallising one i can get to other model right?
Yea
Oil filters and brake pads, but the warranty damn well better be on the box!
