Hi my name is aaron and I'm a welding student at pikes peak community college in Colorado springs Colorado. Ive spent many many hours looking on from the shadows and absorbing as much knowledge as I can. I hope that I will be able to contribute in some way even if that's just by asking questions to stem on conversations. I have always been mechanically minded and love working on cars. I have been honored to look on from the shadows and id be honored to join in on the conversation.
but enough sentimental chit chat, lets talk about projects! My first vehicle was a chevy s10 that i immediately tore apart the day after i bought it. It spent about a year in that state before I drove it for the second semester of junior year and my senior year. at the beginning of my last semester of highschool I took it apart again bought a jeep and started breaking it on the trails sooner than i thought i would. during all this i had my eye on my neighbor's bmw 314i. i spent three years mowing their yard and finally worked up the nerve to ask if the owner would sell it. it had sat for twelve years with out being driven and wasn't in the best shape but i saw potential. she agreed to sell it to me for 400 dollars which blew me away but i needed to wait for her to find the title. long story short she couldn't find it and the state wasn't giving her a new one so she gave me the car for free so that i could attempt to get a new title from scratch. so now i have a truck that has the wiring torn out for rebuilding, a jeep that is running but needs a few things, and a free bmw that is collecting dust in my parents barn. hopefully all these things will come into fruition and i can share some of the story with all of you. thanks for reading and god bless
