Taught to love vehicles at an early
age by his father Bud Bower, Dwayne's lifelong passion (his wife would
say "obsession") began at the age of 12 when his father purchased
Dwayne's first car, a 1929 Packard convertible coupe, which he still
owns. His high school car, honeymoon car, relatives' cars, and vehicles
he always admired slowly increased the size of his collection. Today,
Dwayne acquires vehicles to restore which might have been ordinary
family sedans or work trucks in their day but have stood the test of
time and become true classics.
