Being a teen myself (19) I think that they would like to see examples of projects (before during and after photos) to peak their interest, then you could go into how the job market is for people with these skills and talking about what type of employers they may end up working for, and possibly talk about the business aspect of it, for example running your own company, then talk about the schools that offer this kind of education. Also, you could suggest going out there and working at a shop or anywhere where they can get hands on experience with cars so that they can make sure this is the future they want because sometimes kids my age will look at something like this and think it is a lot more glorious then it realy is, especially with TV shows like Monster Garage and American Choppers, kids can get the wrong impression about what type of skill and work is really required to make a great car when all they see is the glorified aspects of the hoby that is shown on TV. Personally I think hands on experience is the only way to truely know if this type of work is something you will want to spend your entire life doing.
umm...thats all I have for you now, hope it helps.
