Good day,I am getting ready to go to wyotech. I am 35 and after reading the threads on this site i am not sure,Am i old for the school? I am paying for this out of my own pocket,I am starting to think i may be a fool.I am a floor installer by trade.But i love cars. I looked around my home one day after being given a 67 ss toy, my house looks like a garage ,motors in the hall.bady parts in the walkin and my yard is a small salvage yard...what do you think? HELP!!
Sounds like you've got it bad (there is no cure!!!), just remember" were never too old to learn more". keep us all posted what it's like at Wyotech for a "mature student".About 5yrs ago i took a course in aircraft ***embly,30 in cl*** & all under25 except me (38 then),It was an adventure!
Thanx 29bowtie, I got some good out look from an odd place, My little sister.I was talking with her about how much cash it would cost me,She looked at me and asked why i did not do this years ago.. At first i was a bit lost, Then she said that as long as she can remember, i was a carguy.I thought she was wrong or just overdoing it,,she says i can prove it easy...she then asked me to read my xm*** list from when i was 16... dont ask i have no clue why she saves this ****... But it was a list of parts i had to buy for my61 olds holiday..who would have thunk that my little sister was a little gandi...well i am now going to do it starting feb12, I will update you all often..
You geta giant "ATTABOY" for this,I've kicked myself too many times for not "living my dreams" many years ago.You are very lucky to have such a supportive sister!I'm getting a very bitter lesson these days,after 13 motor vehicle accidents(no fault of mine)over the last 12 yrs,I can't do the jobs i've relied on till now.MORE EDUCATION makes for many more options when you most need them !...........GOOD LUCK,& give your sis a BIG hug!
