CLYDE BARROW'S LETTER TO HENRY FORD

 


 A Letter sent by Clyde Barrow to Henry Ford in April 1934 said:



Dear Sir:

While I still have breath in my lungs I will tell you what a dandy car you make.  I have drove exclusively when I could get away with one.  For sustained speed and freedom from trouble the Ford has got every other car skinned and even if my business hasn’t been strictly legal it don’t hurt to tell you what a dandy car you got in the Ford V-8. 

Yours truly,
Clyde Champion Barrow
