Two years in. Time to take it up a notch.
Last week marked two years since I relaunched 2PJZ with 1000 followers, a goal to post every day for a year, and a dream to build a life around the cars I love. I never could have imagined where that would lead.
Three months ago I walked away from my full-time job with no safety net, no guarantee, and no plan B, to build my one-man media business and create a life where my job was to share the stories of the cars that mean so much to me. Many people in my life thought I was crazy. Honestly, some days I wondered too.
But somewhere between then and now, this crazy idea between Sam and me started taking shape.
Weāve just got the keys to a big empty box in Melbourneās south east. A sister space to Preston. And weāre building it out from scratch, with our own hands and everything weāve got, into the ultimate hub for car enthusiasts.
Secure storage for prestige cars, a membersā lounge, detailing studio, mechanic bay, meeting rooms, drive days and more. Sam is doing the carpentry, and Iām on the tools as well. Neither of us really knows what weāre doing yet. And thatās exactly what makes it real.
This is ours to build out. Thereās no team above us and no finger-wagging overlords. Just two blokes who love cars, who looked at each other one day and said āletās give it a goā.
Itās more expensive than we ever could have realised. Itās the scariest thing Iāve done since handing in my resignation. And Iāve not felt this level of excitement for a long time.
If youāve been here since the start, this oneās for you. Two years ago, you were watching me nerding out about cars I found in car parks. Now youāre watching us build something weāve wanted to exist our whole lives.
Comment āBOXā below to be the first to know about storage, memberships, and to stay in the loop with our progress.
Things have moved fast in the last three weeks, and thereās a lot more to share soon.
Thanks for being here.
