1918 Dodge Brothers Touring Car

01

Artifact Overview

After years of supplying engines and components to Ford Motor Company, brothers John and Horace Dodge introduced their own automobile in 1914. Their design didn't change much in its first years, but modifications weren't necessary. The all-steel body, sliding-gear transmission and electric starter made the Dodge Brothers one of the most durable and reliable cars on the market.
