    in my high school we had a delta 88 with a sweet red valor interior. The shop teacher had the motor bored and stroked, all new internals, the thing was going to be bitchen, and all out of his own pocket. The lat thing i did with my auto shop before i went to school was pick up the freshly rebuilt motor from the machine shop. then he got so frustrated with his new class he sent thing to the junk yard

    the saturn isn't from the uk- it's probably just a rural mail car. ain't no saturns in europe, europeans are cool
    haha, auto teacher said he picked it up from an auction, was going to the UK but then the buyer backed out ( no kidding )

    My auto shop used to have a 98 viper gts factory dodge donation, but some dumbass was running diagnostics on it and accidently popped the clutch in first and drove right through the roll up shop door, it hasnt been back in the shop since

    Our high school autoshop sucked. I did wash my car there once, some idiot borrowed my chamois and cleaned brake dust off his shitty TSW wheels with it.

    But in jr. high I was foreman of the woodshop so we got to do a bit of carpentry building the new tech lab. Tech lab was kind of cool there was a computer program where we designed and tested bridges on the computer then built a scaled down one with balsa wood, mine held like 40 pounds. Then we got to put together a 2 stroke engine, learned screen printing and some other hands on activities.

    Good times in auto shop. we had a ford focus coupe, some big ass RV that stunk like shit, a but ton of spare engines, and a 40 foot pile of used tires. The tires were the best part. There was a loft in the shop, and the tires were RIGHT below it. Wanna know who jumped from the loft into the pile of tires?

    ..in addition to a jaguar xj8 that they've had for a few months.
    my school has a shitty old faux-woodgrain caravan and a lumina.

    When I was in high school in my shop class I tubed and caged a monza, Built a sandrail. We also had a lot of small block fords to tear down and rebuild and then test fire. All the diagnostic equipment it was pretty much a full shop. And we could bring in whatever to work on.

    In CA, more specifically the Salinas area, we had some pretty damn nice cars. I worked on my '73 Mercedes 280 SEL with the 6.3l V8 in it all the time. Auto body teacher had a Ford shoebox with a chop top sitting on bags. I learned to use a spray gun on that thing. Talk about "no pressure"...
