I had the chance to go to Kansas for Automotive restoration and I really regret not going. It was an awesome school but Kansas was really really far away and I couldnt attend the trucks every week :-(

I hear ya Kasey. I took off as well because Im still not sure what I want to be when I grow up. In the end, it comes down to having that piece of paper, and that will get you anywhere.

:kneeslap:

I went to community college for a semester and a half. I was an education major and I liked the stuff I was learning, but at the same time, I hated it. I like learning new things, but I dont like learning what other people tell me to learn (aka school). Thats when I started looking into the automotive field. I met with a Wyotech recruiter and signed up that same day.

Looking back on it, I'm glad I did what I did. teaching jobs can be hard to come by sometimes and dealing with a bunch of little punk kids would suck. plus I would have to find another job for the summer time. Working on cars is easy for me, I understand cars a lot better than any subject I ever took in "normal" school. Cars will always break, so I'll always have a job :). Plus I got to learn how to weld, shape sheet metal and paint in addition to all the "dealership" stuff.

:stupid:


i looked into colleges when i was in HS, but nothing really appealed to me.

even Lincoln Tech was kind of a bore because my auto teacher in HS taught me so much, but it all worked out in the end.

i love jakes car

I have had first dibs since August 23 2002. The day Jake bought the car. Thanks for telling me that one Jake.

never said my car was fast, and there's plenty of those (faster then my car) on the road. plus at this point anything is faster then my car cuz its been in the shop for 2 weeks in a row now.

jacob- whats the matter with you guys? i beat the **** out of that car... :shrug:

whats wrong with it?

anyone remember that 383 Iroc Convertible? lol, well most of you know i did build it years earlier, and i found a pic of it back then, i have better pics on my other comp, but here you can at least see it wasnt always crap. It was respectable when i owned it.
