On Patrol

 

This old police car, a 1957 Chevy, often comes out for special events like the Santa Claus parade which was the case here. The car sat on Bloor St and led off the start of the parade. Quite a difference from the police vehicles that we see today.

  9. It must have been quite a moment, seeing that classic 1957 Chevy leading the parade, a striking contrast to the sleek modern cruisers we’re used to.
