FROHNA POLICE CAR FINALLY RETIRED

A 1972 Chevrolet Bel Air used for 24 years by the Frohna Police Department finally will get some rest.

The city of Frohna sold the car to an Indiana law enforcement officer who wants to restore it and take it to police car shows. Ed Sanow paid $2,000 for the car, which was purchased new for $3,291. The Chevrolet was considered in service until the day it sold, although recently it was driven only once or twice a month.

Sale of the car included the vintage Federal twin lightbar and the original police radio.

Frohna city officials plan to use the $2,000 toward purchasing a used Missouri State Highway Patrol car when they receive more funding.
