You guys that cut away metal and bring it back to its original shape...just blows me away. I'd do anything to have that kind of talent. I wish I had someone locally that I could work with to learn.

Looks like your making progress.  Keep up the good work. :2thumbs:

Good on you.
The more work you put in it yourself, the greater the reward at the end.  :2thumbs: You can be proud.

Any decent community college will have an auto body program.  Sign up and go have some fun.

Best thing is, you might be able to bring your own project.

I went to autobody college for 2 years at Ivy Tech, what a joke I had learned alot from a old school bodyman I had hung around since I was 12 and the instructor walked by and would just tell these kids "looks good!" when they were not sanding or spraying properly. Chapped my ass oh well I took classes between the Automotive technology classes, only reason I went was to use the booth which was pointless I might as well painted outside because nobody ever changed the filters  :rotz: Oh well live and learn... Looks great by the way!!!
Sold my Charger unfortunately....never got it finished.

Alex87

yeah I went to school for autobody for a year kind of a joke but I hade some good teachers. But I learned a lot of it by donig it. Also spent a lot of time on hear and on CGLFC looking at everyones picts and reading to see how they did it. its come a long way with all of everyones help on hear that you didnt know you where helping... So thanks to everyone.
