    I just bought this body. The previous owner thinks it is a Dodge Bros body?

    Thank You for the help,

    David

    Mid 20's Dodge, if I had to put a year on it, I'd say '26 I had a cowl identical to it that I used to cobble together a roadster a couple years ago and it took me forever to figure out that it was a Dodge. They have an interesting shape.

    That's gorgeous. Reminds me of the '22 or so Buick roadsters that HotRodDrummer and Zman are building. I love those integrated turtledecks. It's just begging for an Isky-type build if you ask me.

    50/50 Dodge, I think you have the back of a Dodge Coupe and the front of a Dodge roadster or touring. I'll check my Dodge history book later tonight.

    I would say mid 20's Dodge Bros.
     
  7. Before sometime in the mid-late 30's, Dodge Brothers, after which it became Dodge. Wow. Get a Chivvy ***le, hop up a 4banger ohv pre-28 chivvy motor in it and call it one. That would make a *****in' 'rod with tall & skinny, with discs, woods, or wires.

    I was watching that body on ebay.Was very tempted to buy it. Good luck with it.
     
  10. What you have is around a 1919 dodge roadster or touring car cowl with a '22 or so coupe rear half....good luck finding the trunk panel...Check out Model T Haven....they have a couple in there yard, and will email pictures of anything they have to you.
     
  11. Heres one I saw not sure of the year, but it is a early Dodge.

    Hey, Just saw your body on Ebay....lol Well the rear section is from a '26 Dodge ( I know cause I have the front cowl & Doors) The front is from an early Dodge touring I belive. Prob 1916-18. A guy just listed an entire '26 Dodge on Ebay last week. It is part 26 if you havent sold it want do you want for it?
     
  13. stuff a sbc in it, put some kelsey-hayes on it, and call it a ford...no one will ever know:D
