garageman

Auto repair worker

A garageman is a man who works at a garage—either a service station attendant who pumps gas and checks fluids, or a mechanic who repairs vehicles.

The term is dated, reflecting an era when such attendants were common: The garageman wiped the windshield while the tank filled.
