Born in the era of hot rods and shade tree mechanics, Dave grew up passionate about cars and fascinated with internal combustion engines. At 15 he was working in gas stations all around his hometown of District Heights, Maryland, absorbing the lore and learning the intricacies of auto mechanics. After a brief stint at the Washington Navy Yard, he began a long career at the Naval Research Lab as a technician teamed up with a group of scientists. If they could design it, Davey could make it. He retired from NRL in 1995 to a quiet life in Woodbridge, Virginia with his wife Martha. (Earlier marriages to June Folsom and Janet Butler had ended in divorce.)
