Of 'Cubas and Camaros

A heartwarming story from the Detroit Free Press: 16-year-old gearhead girl rebuilds her mother's first car from a rusted-out wreck into the drop-dead gorgeous, fire-breathing muscle machine it was meant to be. Most envy-inspiring line:
Christie doesn't dare drive the 'Cuda to school. It might get scratched or dented. Instead, she has a 1969 Chevrolet Camaro, also a classic, for everyday driving.
And speaking of Camaros: David Koresh's Camaro, complete with "David's 427 Go God" stamped on the engine block, was recently auctioned in Fredericksburg, Texas. (You missed your chance, Carlos!)
