The Great Wandering
One foggy morning in 1969, as Art Gamblin was opening the doors to his brand new Chevrolet dealership, massive footprints appeared in the fresh concrete. Local legends spoke of a wandering Sasquatch who had grown tired of forest life and was drawn to the rumble of engines and the smell of fresh automotive paint.
An Unconventional Interview
When Art discovered the 8-foot-tall, furry visitor gently polishing a Chevy Impala with remarkable care, he knew this wasn't your typical job applicant. Gambo's enthusiasm for automobiles and natural ability to spot quality convinced Art to take a chance on the most unique employee in automotive history.
