1928 Auto Repair Advertisement Postcard

Post marked 
Bottineau, Jun 29, 12M, N. Dak. 1928

Addressed to: Chester Bjorngoard
              Maxbass, ND

Dear Sir:

We're writing this letter to you today because we want to help you get your 
money out of your Model T.

It's still as good a car as it was the day the new Model A Ford was announced 
and there's no need to sacrifice it.

The Model T Ford is still used by more people than any other automobile. Eight 
million are in active service right now and many of them can be driven one, 
two, three and five years and even longer.

Bring your car to us and let us look it over. You'll be surprised to see how 
little it costs to put it in tip-top shape.

New fenders, for instance, cost from $3.50 to $5.00 each, with a labor charge 
of $1.00 to $2.50. Tuning up the motor and replacing commutator case, brush 
and vibrator points costs only $1.00, with a small charge for material. Brake 
shoes can be installed and emergency brakes equalized for a labor charge of 
only $1.25. A labor charge of $4.00 to $5.00 will cover the overhauling of the 
front axle, rebushing springs and spring perches, and straightening, aligning 
and adjusting wheels.

The labor charge for overhauling the average rear axle runs from $5.75 to 
$7.00. Grinding valves and cleaning carbon can be done for $3.00 to $4.00.

A set of four new pistons and rings cost only $7.00. For a labor charge of $20 
to $25.00 you can have your motor and transmission completely overhauled. 
Parts are extra.

Very truly yours,
C. R. Gleason Co.
Bottineau, N. Dak.
