The love of old cars provides many adventures for people in the hobby. As a child there were "special" cars that made a lasting impression. The best birthday is the one that allows the acquiring of a driver's license. The first car, like the first love, will never be forgotten. Repairing an old car and showing it off at the drive-in is a cherished right of automotive passage. Continuing through life with a collector car at your side is a match made in heaven. Lance Lambert, automotive journalist, TV personality and passionate car collector, shares some of his adventures from decades of holding the honored title of "Car Guy." From his first "car" (a combination of his sister's tea set table and a broken wagon) to his current love of "orphan" cars (his garage menagerie includes two Studebakers and two King Midgets), Lance is a person living the life that all car lovers love. This book follows Lance's best selling "Fenders, Fins & Friends: Confessions of a Car Guy." His newest book, "Gears, Grins & Gasoline: My Wheel Life Adventures," contain 59 short stories that will bring smiles and, if the reader is not careful, a tear or two. Included is the tale of 13 year-old Lance and a friend "borrowing" a car; dangerous chases and "rumbles" with rivals; mistakes made on motorcycles; teenage girls in great cars; automotive successes and failures, and even spending time with a 1955 Chevrolet-owning ghost. It's a great book about great cars and great people. Pour a coup of coffee and head to the garage, then sit back and enjoy the reading ride

Lance Lambert began writing about automobiles during his freshman year of college when he shared his opinion that various cars reflect the personalities of the drivers. Over the following decades his stories have been published in many national and international publications. Since 2008 he has been a featured columnist for Garage Style Magazine, and for 15 years he was a featured columnist for the Journal Newspapers. He began his television career as a cast member in 135 episodes of the "Call Us Now" show, and he has been the host and executive producer of the weekly television series "Vintage Vehicle Show" since 1993. Lance spent many years performing with comedy improv groups and was featured on Comedy Central Network's "Access America." Lance frequently emcees automotive and charity events, and his auctioneering skills bring loads of laughter and cash to many auctions. His automotive background qualifies him as an expert automotive appraiser. Lance was inducted into the Washington Hot Rod Hall of Fame in 2008, and in 2010 he was the recipient of the Lee Iacocca Award from the Iacocca Family Foundation. Lance's greatest pleasure is spending time with family and friends.
