Default The 1934 Brewster - Built On A Ford Chassis - Marketed By Rolls Royce

So I startled doing research … 📖

Brewster & Company began operations in 1810.
They survived for nearly 130 years.

They had their own ostentatious line of
automobiles between 1915 - 1925.

Rolls Royce Limited chose them to
provide their car bodies starting in 1914
and Brewster & Company became the
principal supplier of the RRL car bodies for
automobiles sold in The United States.

With their own automobile line languishing
Brewster came to an agreement in 1925
to sell their company & debt to Rolls-Royce of America.

Then came The Great Depression …

Following The Great Depression
Of August 1929 To March Of 1933
there was a pushback from the public
against the wealthy and their large luxurious cars.

So - in 1934 - a plan was developed to
boost sales by introducing a car line
based on The Brewster Name and
built on the 1934 Ford V-8 Roadter Chassis …. 💡
