    apprenticeship/internship

    AMCA members, I'm new to this group but not to old motorcycles. My youngest son wants to repair and restore vintage and antique motorcycles and I'm thrilled. However, all the established schools (including the one he's in) focus on very new technology and he's frustrated. So, we're looking to find either a shop that does internships/apprenticeships or open to other suggestions for him to get in the biz. We live in Indianapolis but I'm willing to ship him somewhere for awhile. Any suggestions would be appreciated! thanks,

    Aaron in Indy

    Check with Carl at Carl's Cycle Supply. He has done things like this in the past. You may be able to work something out. Aberdeen, SD. 605-225-5702

        He should focus on the new technology as well. By the time he gets to our age it will be vintage and antique!

            You could try the Barber Museum in Birmingham Alabama they may have some ideas for you. They do have a full restoration shop. I think that a gentleman who worked there was posting on here in the past.
