Don't think there is or was a (automotive) FAQ for this
newsgroup....way to many sub-FAQ's around, and no central site to
link them all, at least no one did in the old days, and since then
Google has taken over.
One nice, very group-specific detail, that hardly any poster knows
today, should be mentioned though: this newsgroup was once created
by a woman, thread starting 23 November 1994, vote result on 20
February 1995, first postings 27 February....

(couldn't find the 1st CFV, only the 2nd, shame)
(wasn't there myself at the time sadly, only found it a few months
later, and I wouldn't have known that detail since either, if she
hadn't once subscribed to the Land Cruiser Mailinglist for a short
while, and stated that herself)
As a personal note/coincidence, the Infrared Photography FAQ was
created by a woman too....
