WAKEFIELD Students at Northeast Metropolitan Regional Vocational School worked with instructors to repair a donated 2004 Toyota Prius and award it to a veteran, in partnership with Second Chance Cars, a Concord-based nonprofit that awards affordable donated cars to working people, and the nonprofit’s partners at Bedford Veterans Affairs, American Consumer Credit Counseling and Metro Credit Union.
Approximately 11 sophomore auto body students worked on the vehicle, starting in April, under the guidance of Instructor Robert MacGregor. Students performed minor bodywork and gave the car a complete paint job. It was the first time the students had worked on a “live” car that someone would later drive, not a practice vehicle.
