A lifelong car enthusiast, Dave was identifying makes and models before he could read. Obsessed with automotive history, he entered the world of freelancing in 2014, contributing features and retrospectives to Street Machine and Unique Cars. A skillset more suited to writing than spannering hasn’t stopped him from owning two LS-powered Holdens, a handful of Yank tanks and nine vintage Isuzu cars – mostly at the same time. In his spare moments, he ensures his housekids are fed and watered, buggerises around with Classic Space Lego and creates content for online entity Garage of Awesome across Facebook, Instagram and YouTube.
