Growing up on a small family farm in northwestern Illinois. Our guest started tinkering with machines at an early age and purchased his first motorcycle, a 50cc Honda Cub by 12, and his first car, a ‘59 Ford Thunderbird Bird, at age 15. He’s played guitar and trumpet in a variety of rock, folk, and school bands. He continued his automotive interest and, through the course of his college years, owned a number of muscle and sports cars. He also kept up his music, playing in local coffee houses and has opened for acts such as Charlie Daniels, Waylon Jennings and Dr. Hook.
Now, You might be saying to yourself, my goodness… we have a Rockstar in our presence! And in fact you’d be right, we have the Rockstar of the Classic Car World with us tonight on Break/Fix.
My Classic Car, hosted by the handlebar mustachioed host Dennis Gage premiered as a one of a kind weekly series on TNN in January of 1997, and it hasn’t been off the air since! The show captures America’s love affair with the automobile, and we’re here to capture Dennis’ story in this episode.
