Just wondering if it is, yes I love my GTI and plan on spending plenty of money on it, but you can't necessarily just chop away at that car with no concern like you can a jap, so i've been considering doing a RHD conversion on a 240SX

no its not....u can convert a car to RHD...but if u were to buy a RHD from another country then u would have to get it certified to be in the US

Where do I go to take classes like that? Seriously. I don't want to quit my day job, but I'd love to build up some metal skills.

Not sure, I know that there are actually art classes that will teach you to weld. I go to V-tech and i'm an engineer so I can use the metal shop and what not. Those classes are offered at my school, but i'm sure you can find something in the area.

It help that my grandfather welds and taught me some stuff

I think nova offers them

I typed in welding workshops norhtern VA and got hit w/ tons of responses from google. See what you can find, let me know
