GREENSBORO — That 1995 Geo Prizm isn't doing so well, Beverly Black laments. It needs repairs, and it's just sitting there in front of her home.
But those worries are long gone now that Black has won a new Ford Mustang from the state lottery. Now, she won't need to borrow her brother's car.
"It'll be a really great help, just to get around when I want to," she said.
Black, 44, bought her lottery tickets and received her entry form at a convenience store near her Woodmere Park home.
She was the last of five people to win a Mustang as part of the promotion, and her entry was among 93,000 received by the lottery for the fifth car.
Lottery officials hope to present the car to Black next week at the convenience store where she bought her tickets.
Her preferred color? Blue.
"This win just came right on time," she said.
