Gentlemen
Replying to your inquiry relative to my Model A car, I am pleased to say that I am the owner of a 1930 Model A tudor, which I purchased from your company.
I have driven this car 2,735 miles. I have had no expense whatsoever in the upkeep of the car, and find it to be very economical on gas and oil, and a most unusual car in traffic, as it is so easy to handle. The Model A is an easy riding car over all kinds of roads.
I am well satisfied with my Model A, and I feel that it saves at least one-third of the expense on gasoline over the six cylinder automobile.
Service rendered by the Brooker Motor Company has been entirely satisfactory in every way.
Very truly yours,
