After years and years of working on cars. Nothing hits the same as the first few times you do something. These were the days when I didn’t know what I was getting into. How these driveway build days would decide my career path and how I support myself and family. Where my passion turned into a Job and pulled me away from the excitement.
Be honest…
What’s your car teaching you right now?
Patience?
Discipline?
Humility?
How to walk away before you throw a wrench? 😅
Do you remember the feeling of when you got your first garage? You finally moved out of that apartment or that tiny house at the end of the road and are looking at your new garage feeling the weight fall off of your shoulders, knowing you have a place to get lost now. A place to find solace.
What was the first thing you did when you got your first garage? What was your first project in it?
What did garage therapy help you get through this last year?
After comparing myself to other people’s builds from Integras to skylines, and after getting rid of both of them I realized that I should’ve been more grateful/appreciative with the work, time, and money I’ve spent and done with the cars. And that I should’ve stop telling myself in the past “You’re at a good state and good area, where you have these cars at a young age”
Didn’t get too far before the heat did me in, but I got the mount for the amp welded in. Amp is in and wired. Front stage is temporarily back in. Now the package tray rebuild begins.

Shiny shiny!
