Gentlemen:-
Replying to your inquiry relative to my Model A car, I am pleased to say that I am the owner of a 1929 Model A Tudor, which I purchased from your company.
I have driven this car 8,913 miles, and find it very economical on gas and oil. I can drive my Model A from 600 to 700 miles without adding any oil.
It seems to me that the Model A is the ideal car for the farmer, because of the low cost of operation.
I have had no expense whatsoever in the upkeep of this car.
Mrs. Hibbard likes to drive the Model A, because it handles easily and rides comfortably over all kinds of roads.
Service rendered by the Brooker Motor Company has been satisfactory at all times.
Very truly yours,
