Vehicle Description
1924 Dodge Brothers Touring - Inline 4 Cylinder Engine - 3 Speed
Manual Transmission - 38k Miles Shown - Black Exterior - Black
Convertible Top - Black Interior Featured here is a fantastic
vintage car. This 1924 Dodge Brothers Touring car is an older
restoration that has aged well. The black finish has been
well-maintained and shines with a deep luster. The nickel-plated
radiator and bumpers likewise have been kept polished and sustained
to a deep brilliance. The top is in very good condition and
included in the sale are all the side curtains and a rear passenger
area tonneau cover. The car rides on traditional tubed tires
mounted on Budd-Michelin steel disc wheels painted body color. The
rear brake light and motometer radiator cap were standard equipment
on the Dodges of that era. The black interior was completely
restored some time ago and shows only some light wear on the touch
points of the upholstery and light color fade in the carpet. The
dash features a simple gauge cluster with oil pressure and amperes
meters. The large wood-rimmed steering wheel houses the throttle
and timing control levers mounted on the steering column, and you
thought steering wheel finger controls were a modern feature! Under
the hood sits an L-head 212.3 cid for cylinder motor that was
factory rated at 35 horsepower. The engine runs well and starts up
with ease. The engine is mated to a three-speed selective sliding
manual transmission. The power is routed to the rear differential
that houses the two-wheel mechanical brakes. The frame is clean and
free of rust and overall, the simple mechanics have been kept up on
the suspension and brakes, with the only concern being that the
muffler shows some tiny holes and will need to be eventually
replaced. Otherwise, this vintage Dodge is turnkey and ready to
cruise. This would be a great car for driving in local heritage
parades, participating in vintage car club tours or car shows such
as the Old Car Festival held at Greenfield Village were you can
cruise the streets with other era-correct cars. There really is
nothing like driving a 100-year-old car, and you will enjoy taking
rides on the two lanes in your community as passersby smile and
marvel at this piece of history that is in its natural habitat, out
on the road touring! Please call if interested or e-mail with
specific questions. Thanks for looking.
