I was taught by a guy that did pick and file work - and lead work - at my first job at Gateway Body and Fender... when I was 13.

I learned from my machine tool program at Athens Tech when I was still wandering around not wanting to be in a traditional class room. I see people grab files and just start going back and forth with them. I try to tell them on go forward only and get this are you crazy look as a response.
Life is like that though and everyone learns differently and at different time. As you and Al have mentioned, these brothers haven't done anything like this before and that's part of the story. Quite possibly to coolest part of the story. I think I'd be sure to have that in part of the write up/display information. I think it might help encourage people young and old. Be sure to let us know when the car's going to be featured in the magazines as I'm sure it will be.
