The 14-year-old from Mt. Pleasant, Michigan, has spent the last two years rebuilding a Pontiac Fiero from scrap.
Kathryn used her her pocket money from babysitting to buy the vehicle, which she hopes to complete in time for her 16th birthday.
Her father Jerry revealed how a 12-year-old Kathryn pleaded with her parents, ‘Dad, Mom, can we talk for a minute?’ he told.
Jerry added: ‘She presented us with something she had been thinking about. She said that she would like to buy a car with her babysitting money. We were like, you are only 12.’
After agreeing to oversee her venture, Kathryn has embarked on the long and arduous process with the aid of her dad and uncle.
That has seen her strip the entire interior of the car, except for the dashboard, the steering wheel and the carpet floor.
She has also sanded, spray painted and welded many components and even carried out the necessary upholstery work on her car.
