    Makes me wish I had the time to work on an 02 like this.
    He does most of the work oh his days off from work, if im correct.

      Yeah I do, I usually work 5 days a week and go up and work on the '02 on the two days that I have off. That's not to say that everyone has time to spend their only free days working on a project. I don't have school, a wife, kids, mortgage, debt, etc so I don't have too many obligations.

      Plus, I'm lucky enough to have a very understanding girlfriend who is cool with me spending my free days on my '02, because she knows how important this project is to me and that I want to complete it.

            • Another full day of work on the Roundie. I am dreaming of the day that I finish the body work on this car! So ready to have that behind me. Found another hidden glob of filler that was hiding a good sized dent in the door, so that sucked. Anyways, here we go.

              Thought this looked kind of cool:



              Got it down to bare metal:



              Holes welded up:



              Ground smooth:



              Filler applied:



              I forgot to snap a picture after I was done smoothing the filler, so here's how it looked after primer. Still needs some work:



              Although I was a little discouraged and frustrated today working on the '02 thinking about how much more body work I have ahead of me, I cheered myself up by taking a step back and realizing how lucky I am to have an awesome work space in an amazing location where I get to work on my dream cars. I'm a very fortunate dude:

                        Nice! I'll be sure to keep an eye for it. I posted that same pic on Instagram but I had to picstitch it because it wouldn't fit in the normal square picture setup IG has. You can use the pic I posted if you want, my IG name is "ayyyitsmikey"

                        This is located in Templeton, it's close to Paso Robles. My dad lives up here, it's a 30-acre vineyard that is sort of run down after the owner died about 5 years ago. Now my dad is the only one living on the property and takes care of it, and I have access to all the space and tools. It's pretty damn awesome. There are a bunch of vineyards and winery's out here.
