I just found out you are about 16. I admire your pluck on doing the truck and trying electrical. However at the age of 16 you are too young for an apprenticeship and for sure too young to get killed and you got two more years of listening to Mom if you burn something up. Get your neighbor to help you out. Learn from him and see if he will let you do some small electrical projects under supervision and training. If I were in your neighborhood I would bring the tools and show you and teach you how to do it.
