      i don't know if you noticed, there isn't anything else in my shop. I have 18 people learning how to do body work using my car. We have done a few other projects.

      A little about me: I had 10 years in the industry, I can do anything automotive really. If I can't do it, I know who can. The industry treated me very well, I made my money and decided to get out before I got banged up (if you look at the older guys in the shop you know what i mean). I left the industry and went back to school (why I bought the aveo in the first place) and got a Elementary and Special Education degree. I ended up with a job teaching auto body in a special education center. So everyone who works on the car is a student at the school. I honestly try not to touch it, but in showing them how to do "custom" I have been really involved. I have students in all categories of exceptionalities. And they all do their part to work on this car. I do have delays, and not everything comes out perfect.. but for a bunch of high school aged special ed students we give some of the best shops i have worked in a run for the money so to speak.
