Marijke Booth said she's used to working in a 'man's world' - and when she started in the trade she couldn't even get boots to fit.<br /><br />But after stuffing out the end of her steel-toe boots with socks she's got stuck into being a full-time mechanic.<br /><br />She hassled a local garage into giving her a job as a mechanic, built her own car and scored a place working for a race team, and now owns her very own garage.<br /><br />Marijke said it's been far from easy - male customers often defer to her male colleagues and advertising is dominated by male faces.
