  <body><![CDATA[<p>With the new Reck Garage, officially unveiled this spring next to the John Lewis Student Center, Georgia Tech&#39;s iconic mascot will always have a prime parking spot in the heart of campus.<br />
<br />
The garage includes a fully functioning repair station with a lift, work benches, plenty of storage for tools, an outdoor car wash station, and dual entrances, making the space as functional as it is stylish. The crowning design piece though is a spinning turntable that allows for 360-degree views of the vintage car. When it&#39;s not rambling though campus sounding its distinctive horn, the Ramblin&#39; Wreck can now be enjoyed almost 24/7 by its most loyal fans&mdash;students.<br />
<br />
&quot;In the Reck Club, we always say that the Wreck belongs to the student body; it&#39;s a representation of students,&quot; says Omar Khan, the new 2023 driver. &quot;But there&#39;s always been some distance because we had to keep its location secret. This is a special moment to see it find a permanent home right here in the middle of campus.&quot;</p>

  <!--  Disquisition: it's funny how I write these TODOs and then never
         revisit them. It's as though the act of writing the thing down frees me
         from the responsibility to actually solve the problem. But what can I
         say? There are more problems than there's time to solve.  -->
