"THE NEXT GENERATION - Project Pedal Car" is a joint project between SUN Technical Institute and Carlisle Auctions. Jonathan Reeder, the Instructor for the Collision Repair Technology Class reached out to Carlisle Auctions with his idea of building customized pedal cars as part of their class project and asked if he could run them through the 2025 Spring Collector Car Auction to raise money for the students to help get them started in their car. This project went from simply painting the cars to a full scale customization spanning many additional classes that helped with the project. Carlisle Auctions was there every step of the way to document the builds. The series gives you an inside look at the project from start to finish with a heavy focus on the students and their individual stories of how they got involved in the Classic Car Hobby. You can follow the series on the Carlisle Auctions Facebook page or the Carlisle Events YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/@Carlisle_Events
