I'm stoked! Taking a restoration class!

So they have a full blown shop?

Yep. They call it a 'lab'. Guy who teaches it is a long-time pinstriper too. He actually teaches a striping class there. See a link for the dude here.

blurb for course:

"...Restore autos to a state of beauty! Learn all the different aspects of automotive restoration such as rust repair, panel fabrication and replacement (1972 and prior), and body finishes including paint and repairs."

They have a bunch of different courses besides restoration - auto body/ refinishing, mechanics, aviation, culinary, construction, etc.
