1934 Brewster Ford Town Car

After opening its doors in 1905, Brewster & Company specialized in building formal coachwork for many different manufacturers. In 1925, the company was bought by Rolls-Royce of America and became the primary body builder for Rolls-Royce in the United States. When Rolls-Royce of America closed in 1934, Brewster, under the guiding hands of J.S. Inskip, purchased and bodied about 135 Ford V8 chassis. The heart-shaped grille was the trademark of the new Brewster automobile, and four different body styles were built, including this formal Town Car with its open chauffeur compartment. Its third and current owner has maintained the car's originality, and it has won many Preservation awards.
