1938 buick brewster town car
US$72,500.00 Brewster & Co. of Queens, New York is one of America's oldest and most storied coachbuilders. Originally formed in 1810 in New Haven, Connecticut, Brewster was America's premier constructer of high quality coaches and wagons. At the turn of the 20th century, the horseless carriage was beginning to find favor among the wealthy, so with a move of operations to New York they began to focus their attention on building motor bodies for New York's elite. By 1911, all carriage building had ceased and the company turned entirely to bodying the best motorcars in the world. It is perhaps a fitting testament to their quality that the first petrol powered car to wear a Brewster body was a Delaunay-Belleville; widely regarded as the very finest car of its era and of which Brewster would become the North American importer in 1905.
