C.D. Hylton Students Share Their Build Progress

The students at C.D. Hylton received a visit from SEMA in early April. The Jeep has been completely torn apart, replacement parts have been added and now the students are in the process of repainting the frame. As soon as the paint dries, the students will go to work rebuilding and adding on all of the aftermarket products that have been donated by the sponsors of this build. When they are done, the Jeep will look like a whole new vehicle!

MEET THE SCHOOL

The C.D. Hylton High School automotive program is a nationally certified, three-year automotive service technology (AST) program, one of only six in Virginia. The program aims to provide students with a strong foundation they can expand upon after graduation, whether they work in the automotive field or continue the trade as a hobby. A high percentage of students continue their automotive studies, and many earn scholarships from the competitions the program participates in throughout the year.

C.D. Hylton High School students will be building a 2002 Jeep Wrangler Sport as part of the 2019 SEMA High School Vehicle Build. The Jeep will be sold at the end of the school year and proceeds will go towards funding another vehicle build for the school.
