New guy from san antonio

Hey everybody my names Kyle im 21 and im from san antonio. I go to an automotive college program here in town but im more interested in learning about older cars. I got on here just to learn more and maybe meet some people here in town.

 

Kyle,
Welcome from Michigan.

 

Welcome from nw san antone....

 

Welcome aboard, Kyle!

 

Welcome from South Carolina

 

Welcome from Indiana.

 

thanks everybody

 

Welcome from downtown San Antonio!

 

Howdy from Sherman TX. I lived in SATX for a while...used to be a group that got together at Bun N Barrel.

 

Welcome from up in Denton

 

Welcome from Kerrville. Attend some of the cruise nights and meet some new friends.

 

ya i go out to biff buzbys sometimes but i usually end up drivin to austin and checkin out there stuff

 

So that make 2 new guys from San Antonio today so far. By Automotive Program are you referring to St. Phillips? I graduated from that program last year. Lots of hands on stuff there.

 

ya im just finishing my first semester there. How did you like it? Do you feel like it helped you?

 

It was a blast. All the professors where really cool and a majority of them where ASE Master Techs. Which I know doesn't mean a whole lot to everybody, but it was good to know. I took 2 of my ASE's this year, but haven't received the results yet.

All I can suggest is always volunteer for any project they have. Get your hands dirty everyday. I sat next to too many guys that goofed around and graduated next to me not knowing squat. It's up to you to learn.

It definitely helped me with overall car knowledge on new cars and old cars. Keep all your text books and read them again. You can apply some of that to our type of cars here in this forum in some areas, is what I'm finding out.
They'll teach you some of the basics like how to rebuild motors and transmissions as well as diagnose problems with them and a lot more. Make all your mistakes in class so they can help you.

Good luck!

 

Is that the Pig Stand parking lot in your profile pic?

Biff's is great food and atmosphere , but lately it has alot more newer cars ,imports, mustang and corvette clubs and 4x4's? There is also a place on S. Presa called HOGSTAND it and PIGstand on brodway are the local First Friday Cruise nites every month.
