(NewsNation) — At just 12 years old, Giuseppe Iatarola is educating the world on all things cars. The master mechanic is widely known on social media for his tech tips while running his family’s auto shop.

“As time passed by, when he was about 6, the interest was out of control,” Giuseppe’s father, Luciano, said on “CUOMO.” “He asked a lot of great questions in the process. He was always playing with a toy car.”

Giuseppe Iatarola said it was his idea to start sharing what he knows on social media, and his parents help.

“I was going on YouTube. I was, like, ‘Let’s try it out.’ I never thought it would get to this point,” Giuseppe Iatarola said. On TikTok, Iatarola has nearly 76,000 followers, and on YouTube, he has 127,000 subscribers.

Giuseppe Iatarola is homeschooled and as soon as he’s done with his work, he starts working in the shop with his dad. On his channels, he does step-by-step repair tutorials including mechanical repair, auto body repair, welding and explains how to do old school leading.
