This is either the year of Betty White's victory lap or the beginning of another phase of her career (never, ever count Betty out).

At age 88, and a big name in showbiz for nearly 70 years, the Golden Girls star is about to host Saturday Night Live....and now, the car she used to own (nicknamed "Parakeet") is on display on the AACA Museum in Hershey, Pennsylvania.

Betty owned "Parakeet", a gift from her husband Allen Ludden (who died in 1991) for 25 years. The 1977 Cadillac Seville has been in other hands for eight years, but still has only 18,000 miles.

More about the car, including an interview with Betty, at the New York Times Wheels blog.
