An Eau Claire man brings famed TV deputy Barney Fife to life.

Ken Anderson grew up as a loyal fan of the Andy Griffith show. Today, he continues to share his passion for the show after fixing up a 1965 Ford Galaxy 500 replica Mayberry squad car to look like the one from the show. He hopes his replica reminds people to slow down and enjoy the small things in life.
