2023 Broken Parts Car Club Car Show
Santa Fe Community College’s Automotive Technologies student car club – the Broken Parts Club – is hosting a car show from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Friday, April 26 outside the Automotive Technologies Center on campus, 6401 Richards Avenue. Those who would like to show their automobile should register as soon as possible by contacting the Director of Automotive Technologies Julia Furry at julia.furry@sfcc.edu or by phone at 505-428-1177. Space is limited. The public is invited to attend the show.
“This is our third annual car show and is always a lot of fun. We ask the car owners to explain what’s special about their vehicle. We’ve added the category Owned by Individuals 21 and Younger, so young people aren’t competing against more experienced car enthusiasts. The winners primarily get bragging rights, some prizes and a special trophy that will be made by the SFCC welding department. Every year the welding students come up with a unique design for the trophies,” Furry said.
Winners will be in the following categories: Domestic, European, Imports, Classic or Owned by Individuals 21 and Younger. Lowriders are welcome. The student club’s members are studying Automotive Technologies at SFCC.
A 17,000 square foot state-of-the-art Automotive Technologies Center offers a well-equipped space that provides students with the background and knowledge to earn the Automotive Service Excellence (ASE) Certification in up to eight competency areas: Automotive Engine Repair, Auto Maintenance and Light Truck Repair, Automatic Transmission Transaxle, Automotive Heating and Air Conditioning, Brakes, Manual Transmission and Drive Train, Steering and Suspension, Electricity/Electronic Systems and Engine Performance.
