    Build for High School Students

    Hello,

    I am a teacher in NH starting a program to build a Factory Five Cobra with a group of high schoolers. I would like to connect with others in NH that would be interested in assisting with our build. My intention is to give students hands on experience though a car build. Upon completion of the first build, the car would be sold to purchase another kit to keep the program going year after year.

    Thank you

    Your short description suggests that you envision a self-sustaining program. That may not be your experience.
    I have donated a "collector car" to our local HS as a non body-work/paint restoration project. despite that, cost of parts and special services drives cost up.
    If your parts and services are cost subsidized your ROI is more likely. If you sell/auction with the "charity" hook you may also be advantaged. Of course all that puts the onus on you as the manager.
    FWIW the teacher I worked with envisioned my donated car as an armature to be disassembled, rebuilt and re-assembled for years. In his case this car was an exception to his primary curriculum teaching current car technology.
    Good luck.
