Designer Camilo Pardo stages 'Fuel Injection' art show in Michigan

Automotive designer Camilo Pardo's greatest work of art may have been the Ford GT, but those interested in seeing his work in mediums other than sheetmetal can attend his solo exhibition, titled "Fuel Injection," premiering this weekend at the 323 East gallery in Royal Oak, Mich.

The exhibit recalls the pop art of Andy Warhol's era, Pardo says.
