Alex and Jenna Norton of Petrolia were keeping an eye on their dog, Marlee, who was camped out in the back of Norton’s 1963 Mercury. Norton’s grandfather owned the car for 35 years and often took the fair ambassador in local parades in it. Alex bought it three years ago and spends a lot of his spare time restoring the classic.
