    After years of looking and numerous attempts, I was finally able to wrap my arms around (not literally, of course) 1985 Mercury Grand Marquis Station Wagon! I bought her from her second owner, so she touts only 87K original miles. Meet Betty (Blue Betty, bam-a-lam), a thirty-something gal who recently hails from a farm in Kansas, but currently resides in Missouri with me! Her last relationship was a bit abusive, but once we take care of those bruises and give her a little makeover, she'll be back to her beautiful self. Besides, we all know it's what is on the inside that counts, right?
