Featuring crapcans, breakdowns, heroes, and dreamers.
Sam Smith grew up in his dad's British car restoration shop and worked briefly as a mechanic at a garage servicing vintage Alfa Romeos and as a parts clerk at a Jaguar dealership, but he had dreams of lesser things: He wanted to be an automotive journalist. For 20 years, he's had the opportunity to do just that, writing for a broad range of publications including Esquire, Road Track, Automobile Magazine, Wired, and the New York Times, and, of course, Car and Driver.
In one story about a man's affection for a money pit of a Jaguar , Smith asks the owner why he doesn't just get a different car. The man says, simply, 'Because I love this one. You've been in love, right?' As an enthusiast of oft-reviled vehicles, it made perfect sense.'We're all drawn to these simple concepts and simple machines for really complex reasons,' Smith says.
