Trim & Upholstery:
Basic seam construction
Insert construction
Seat reconstruction
Trim panels
Carpets
Convertible tops
Vinyl tops
Sun visors
Head liners
Tonneau covers




While Im out there, I might decide to take the Hot Rod/Custom Fabrication class to learn more metal work and Pin Striping/Air brush work and the Business corse so I can hopefully open a shop in 2-3 years.



Street Rod and Custom Fabrication:
Custom and specialized sheet metal shaping and fabrication
Application of lead (body solder)
M.I.G., T.I.G. and Oxy-Acetylene welding
Chop tops including carson style tops
Hidden pin hinges (Suicide Doors)
Body Construction including Firewalls, Floorboards and Transmission tunnels
Custom paint techniques including special effects, airbrushing and pin striping
Good luck getting back in for the Street Rod class. That and the High Performanc/Chassis Fab course fill up first. The rep was telling me about it, when you first go (for 9 months) it's best to take your Collision course and the Street Rod or High Perf. course then. And after you finish your first 9, go back and take the upholstery because it doesn't fill up as quick. I'm HOPFULLY starting in January, Collision/High Performance & Chassis, then going back and doing ALL of the other electives; Trim, Business Management, Street Rod. We'll see how my financial aid goes...

But yeah, there's a Wyotech in a ****hole town called Blairsville, PA. And believe me... there is NOTHING to do in that town.
