The Woodward Dream Cruise, an annual automotive festival in Metro Detroit that draws about a million spectators and tens of thousands of hot rods, muscle cars and classics, is a consistent source of feel-good stories. Perhaps the best from this year, the event’s 21st edition, was that of George Talley and his silver Corvette.

What started out as a fairly run-of-the-mill small-block Corvette convertible, this built-for-racing 1968 Chevrolet Corvette for sale on Hemmings.com, could ultimately return to its original configuration, thanks to the fact that the seller didn’t seem to toss anything out when converting it for racing. Then again, it appears just as capable on the track as it does on the road, so perhaps a few more seasons of racing are in the tank for this Corvette? From the seller’s description: Meticulously owned and cared for, it comes with more extra parts and documentation that we can list here.

The 2016 Chevrolet Camaro hits dealer lots late in 2015 and we can confirm the car will be priced from $26,695, including a $995 destination charge. That’s for the entry-level Camaro LT equipped with the new turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine.

Richard Emmons, 83, likes to spend his weekends cruising around in a 1995 Jaguar convertible with a big 12-cylinder engine. His weekday drive is either a 2009 Volkswagen Eos or the $82,000 Audi A8 sedan he bought in November.
