Can u help me?

Guys, I think some of you could help me with this problem.

I want to start with a restoration skills a bit, but couldn't find any information on this subject - books, magazines, websites... I can't go study because of the Academy that I'm already in - I've got not so much time...

Maybe, somebody knows any sources, I mean free ones for now?
Thanks.

No(r)way.
You can watch all these videos:

A guy doing some serious restoration on a Datsun 240Z
The videos are cool, but it's some hours in total....
Poor thing he hasn't updated in over a year...

Restorations=Blood, sweat, tears, and a crap load of money and time. So be prepared.

Depends, most people, who arent experienced, tend to replace things that they could refurbish in their own house...

I'd say get a job with an experienced guy in a garage. The only real way is to learn by hands-on experience.. Maybe there is a guy in your neighbourhood that does it ? Maybe you can ask him if you can help for free ? I did for a few months and it learned me a lot.

There is such company near, but they work exactly at a time that I spend in the academy.

In that case I hope you can just as easily take "time off" as me
