Dude, your auto shop kicks *ss. The only car we worked on in my high school auto shop was a beat-up old 1984 Oldsmobile Firenza. That didn't exactly win any prizes, or did it ever actually drive again after we were done with it.
 
I drove my '83 MCSS to high school every damn day( I just graduated in '07) It was nothing special, its jet black and has Cragar street stars and flowmaster exhaust, autometer guages, dark window tint and headlight covers, and a pretty much factory interior. Everyone loved the car, and it was the fastest car in the senior parking lot. I dropped my bro off at school last week in it and you should seen the look on the little freshmans' faces, it was as if they had never seen anything that old before. I drove through the p-lot it seemed every car was one of those big-winged ricers...makes me sick.

As for the auto shop you guys had some pretty cool autoshops my senior project was.. a 1948 farmall gas tractor...I guess thats what I get for living in this little hick town.
 
from 1991 when I got my license until I graduated in 1993, I had a seriously beat 1974 Nova SS. A friend of mine however, rocked a gorgeous black-on-black '79 Grand Prix (which is where I got my interest in G-bodies). He blew up the 301 screwin' around one night out on a back road, and a month later it had a 400 Pontiac built nearly to RA IV specs. That car was a hairy ride. Over 110 it was a handful to keep on the road (especially with the beautiful roads out here in Ohio farm country). Couldn't keep a differential in it, and when he finally found a limited slip that'd bolt in, he scattered the poor TH200 all over the place. He later pulled the engine/trans and sold it and the car separately. I still give him hell for that.
