Site Admin note: This body style along with the special touring were Gardner's first entries into the eight-in-line market.
The new models were promoted at the New York and Chicago auto show in January with two early prototypes, but production did not get under way until mid to late February. Only 500 8A cars of all body styles were built for 1925 and the 2-door brougham was dropped in favor of the 4-door model for 1926. Making this model one of the rarest of all Gardners.
