Frosaker Motors was located
on Broadway (2nd Street), south of Stearns Motors, about where the
Wells Fargo Drive-up Bank is now. Frosaker Motors was a Chevrolet Dealer and
the building 3 stories. The basement was used for auto parts storage and also a car
wash. The main street level were offices, show room for 1-2 vehicles, and parts
department. The 2nd floor was used for mechanics and new car get-ready. The 3rd
floor was used as the paint and body shop. In the 50's a new one story service
department was constructed on the west end of the building. The 2nd floor was
then utilized for used cars. The used
cars were brought to the upper floors by way of a large freight elevator… That
elevator may have been the main access to upper floors.
There is a picture of a train
load of Chevrolet automobiles. Chevrolet had asked Ole "How many new cars
he wished to order?" he said "Send me a trainload" The trainload
was sold before it reached Minot. Frosaker Motors eventually became Ryan
