Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Whitewalls, Woodlites, enclosed rear spare. Reportedly first owned by Mrs. Mildred Clark of the Singer Sewing Machine Clarks. A tired old restoration that was never particularly spectacular. Paint stress cracked on doors. Sound but not exceptional.

Market commentary

These Brewster Town Cars are intriguing pieces of history, recalling the Great Depression and the decline of custom coachbuilding in America. They occupy a particular niche and enjoy continued popularity, not least on account of Brewsters dramatic heart shaped grille and the ease of maintaining their Ford V8 chassis. This Brewster is representative of their presentation, and their values.
