John and Horace Dodge began their start in the automotive industry by supplying engines and transmission to R.E. Olds. Later, they sold engines, transmissions, and axles to Henry Ford for his automobiles. By 1913 Ford had moved away from purchasing these components, to producing and adapting them to their own machine. The Dodge brothers adapted to this change and the loss of business by producing their own vehicles. The brothers had enough financial backing to be successful and to produce an automobile that was high in quality and durability at an affordable price. By the 1920's, the Dodge company had reached second place in total sales production. This was also the year that both brothers died and the company soon declined. In 1928, Walter P. Chrysler stepped in and saved the sinking company.
This 1922 Dodge Brothers Series I Touring car has seating for 5 and sits atop a 114 inch wheelbase. The car was accompanied with a $985 price tag and powered by a four-cylinder engine capable of producing around 30 horsepower.
The odometer reads just 9,150 miles which is believed to be the correct actual mileage from new. It has a rear-mounted spare tire, artillery wheels and nickel trim.
In 2009, this Touring car was offered for sale at the Vintage Motor Cars of Hershey presented by RM Auctions where it was expected to sell for $20,000 - $30,000 and offered without reserve. As bidding came to a close, the lot had been sold for the sum of $12,100, including buyer's premium.By Daniel Vaughan | Oct 2009
