DownTown is right. I would definitely read the books, see the cars and become friends with those who built their cars, but also get a part time job at a local garage or a body shop, even if it's sweeping the floors. You can help the mechanics and body men and learn how a car is dissasembled and put together. You can watch how they're wrenched, welded, prepared and finished, and see what tools are needed to do the job right. You have the time so go get the job now.
