Pay close attention in the auto upholstery classes. It's a great way to make bank without getting real dirty.

That's for sure. Shops in my area want $1,000-$1500 to install a headliner in each of my 64 Valiants (and the windows are out), and I have the head liner.

I have a nice heavy duty walking foot sewing machine too. I haven’t used it yet. My neighbor used to build hot rods. He sold it to me.

I am thinking there is some sort of circular tornado action going on!

When I was home last week I took the time to pull the plugs, squirt some juice in the cylinders and rotate the engine a few times.
I also blocked off the exhaust with gatorade bottles to keep them stoopid meeces out... :roll:

I just started my High Performance Powertrains class here at WyoTech. I'm looking forward to building a 5.7 Hemi and a small block Chevy in class, crunch a bunch of numbers and play with the engine dyno! :D
