Welcome to Episode 19 of the DPV Podcast! This week, Josh Hahn and Alex Barkley tackle a question that haunts every gearhead: is your project vehicle ever truly finished? We dive deep into why that "done" feeling is so elusive, and explore the rare exceptions where a build might actually be considered complete (hello, show cars!). Join us as we discuss the never-ending cycle of upgrades, the "what if" factor, and why our passion for wrenching often means the journey never really ends. We'll also be sharing updates from our shops, letting you know what we've been working on and what's coming next for our YouTube channels. Plus, the return of our popular Fantasy Build segment! Josh and Alex will each be given a random project car from the wild (thanks, Craigslist!) and a $10,000 budget to virtually build their dream machine. You won't want to miss our wildly different approaches! In this episode: The Obvious Answer: Why most project cars are never truly finished. The "Finished" Illusion: Are show cars and concours builds the exception? Why Projects Are Never Done: Technology evolution, wear & tear, changing tastes, and the addiction of the build process. Shop Talk: Updates on Josh's and Alex's current projects and upcoming video content. Fantasy Build Challenge: $10k budget, random project cars, and endless possibilities! Got a project you thought was "done" only to dive back in? Let us know in the comments below!
