Scholfield Honda in Wichita, KS donated an enormous amount of parts to the Butler Community College Collision Repair program to be used for educational purposes. We received fenders, hoods, doors, bumper covers, and much more. We even received gaskets, wire hardness, computer modules, etc.
Both programs (Collision Repair and Auto Tech) will be able to use these parts to teach the technicians of tomorrow. We plan to use the parts to demonstrate dent repair, plastic repair, welding, painting, blending, and much more. Some of the parts will be made into props which will benefit students for years to come.
The Butler Collision Repair Team would like to give a special holiday thanks to Larry and the rest of the crew at Scholfield Honda for their generosity and support.

Sheet molded compound (SMC) is simply a plastic sheet reinforced with fibers to help improve its characteristics and too make it stronger. That sheet is then molded into the shape of a panel, fender, dash, ext...
