In the Garage

Cars, Tools, Projects – and everything in between.

A place for what happens beyond the parts.
Real cars, real work, and everything that comes with it.

Garage Projects

Cars I’ve lived with – not just owned.
From full builds to ongoing stories. Some finished, most evolving — all part of the process.



Garage Projects
From long-term builds to ongoing projects — each one shaped by use, not just ideas.

Tools I actually use

The essentials — and a few things that just make life easier.
What I use, what I trust, and what’s worth having in a well-kept garage.

How-To Guides
Practical steps and small fixes — tested in real projects, not just theory.
