I am thinking about taking a course at our local "Boces" center. It is an intro to auto body repair...
They cover things such as dent repair, basic welding, etc... I am a complete novice when it comes to working on vehicles. This class starts up this week and I thought I may be able to gain some good knowledge... Any thoughts? |

i take it this is an evening class? i signed up for the same basic thing, auto body repair for the hobbiest. first day the instructor sat us down, showed us the video tapes, "if you have any questions the tapes are labeled by catagory". too many people, people would bring their dogs that had been cooped up all day. final stroke was when a guy showed up with his extended cab 4x4 with a tandam axle boat trailer, took up 4 bays and proceeded to start grinding away at the rust on the trailer. never went back. waste of money. check out the "rules"and class size limits before you write the check.
