Hi everyone
I want to introduce to you a new member of the family "Betty"
I named her after my mother in law who was the best mother in law a son in law could ask for:)

I was able to trailer her home today without any incident or injury to myself :D thankfully.
A big thanks to my great neighbour Bruno LeBlanc for traveling with me today to help load the car on to the trailer!

As discussed earlier she is a bare bones 1960 Dodge Seneca 2dr sedan with the 225cid leaning tower of power ,3spd on the tree, zero options car

She was covered in all sorts of tree sap but has cleaned up quite nicely

My lovely wife of 31 years surprised me by helping with the clean up which was quite quick
There's oxidation to address as I seriously doubt it's ever been waxed

Nice work on the clean up, she looks great!

Glad your back held up through the adventure too.
 
Nice transformation. Amazing what a little (lot) of elbow grease can do, she's a real gem.

Wow, neat car and conrats on a great relationship with your wife and Mother in law.

P.S. I like the green frog in the back window...continue with that
 
Very very nice, I'm jealous. It looks like it has back up lights, weren't those optional?
 
Very neat car. I would never paint a car that color but it fits well on your car.
