I pretty much am self taught, I went to school for mech engineering. So by trade I think mechanical, the body work only comes with practice. I would suggest seeing if you can intern at a local body shop if you are interested in learning.

GreenGoblin, I think your craftsmanship is beyond the average person's autobody skill.

Huge Thank You to Sikky!!!

www.sikky.com

I just picked up a set of there raised height sub-frame bushing kit. I ordered it early morning, and had a tracking number in my email with in 15 min. That is impressive customer service. They were packed very nice so they would not be damaged in shipping, after opening the box the pieces look great. I can not wait to get them installed.

Someone asked me what some of my hobbies were and I said "following greengoblin's build." They gave me the most blank stare and I just laughed.

Yes I know, trust me I have thought about it...

If I do it, I am going to pick up a wrecked Z to do the swap in, and make it a bare bones n/a ls2 monster.
