Vintage postbag, August 1958

Sir,

I have just recently bought a 1928 Marmon which I intend to restore but I have had great difficulty in finding any information on this model car. It is a two seater with dickey and a canvas hood. My greatest need is a set of tyres as the set it is wearing at the moment is completely bald. If you know of any person who owns such a car or anyone who can give me any information I would be only too pleased, the size of tyre is 5.50 x 19. Another job which needs doing is rewiring, especially the lights. The steering column switches are in pieces, several of which are broken, this is another thing I desperately need. If you can help me in any small way I will be only too pleased.

I am, Yours etc.,
Fordbam, Cambs.
M. J. Boyden.
