About

Living the fantasy, practically. I take on projects, and long-held guilty pleasures under real-world constraints, and document what actually happens.

Video Description

This video is the entire build condensed into one 53-minute story — every step from teardown to bodywork, paint, wiring, and that first drive. It’s not just about the car — it’s about persistence, mistakes, and figuring it out one piece at a time. This Alfa Romeo was bought as a total mess. What started as a weekend hobby became a full mechanical and cosmetic restoration — done entirely in my home garage.
