Betsy has been with Roger at RS Auto Services for just a few days…

It was tough to see her in such bad shape but we’re confident she’ll be back and looking great for her first wedding of 2016.

As you can see from the picture above, Betsy’s shiny paintwork was hiding a lot of rust and corrosion and parts of her bodywork have simply crumbled away (with a little help from Tony’s hammer!) This means she’ll need a number of new panels and parts totaling around £1500

We’re going to stick with Betsy’s light green/white colour scheme and by the end of the restoration there will be no evidence of her (presumably original) pea green past.
