Which School is better
Thats what I hear too. Not to mention they are usually wayyyy more $$$ than a comunity college. I would say to go for you Associates of Applied Science in Automotive at a local community college.
805MoparKid went to WyoTech and he said he liked it,and also landed a badass job when he got out so.....
hey thanks for the mention...
so i'll ad my bid...
if your like most of us and have alot of auto knowlege under your belt already then i dont think a tech school is for you... (first 6 monsts will be a touch up)...
though i learned alot in Tranny land...
any ways i was always more focused in the Fab/motor building parts of the school...
High Performance Power Trains or HPPT is a great class... you learn everything from how to do the math for sizing a turbo to building and dynoing a class car...
Chassis Fabrication you do alot of welding for the first month... you learn MIG/TIG on 1/8 and 1/4 in materials, all types and angles of welds...
now for my project i did my AWB car but you can do roll cages and frame work... Etc
then Street Rod!
now if you into the more artistic side of the car world then this is the class... pin striping, custom paint, and sheet metal fab...
you learn english wheel, mig and tig on sheet metal (way different than the thick stuff!)
all and all i would say i would have done it again... if you can move past the BS of kids who are there cuz mommy said so and keep after YOUR goal its great!
i might be biased though as i got a AWB plymouth out of it lol...
