Dodge Brothers Never Do Things
by Halves
And They Usually Do the Right
Thing First
Dodge Brothers were the first automobile
makers to build an all steel open body, without
any wood,
Dodge Brother wero the first to finish an en
tiro automobile body in baked enamel, (tho only
lasting finish), thoy did this in 1914 and remain
alone in this field today excepting! only one
cheap car which has attempted to imitate this
lustrous enamel.
Dodge Brothers were tho first makers to put
quality materials in a medium priced car, all
parts that bar any strain in tho car being built
of chrome-vanadium steel, (not just ono main
leaf in tho front springs).
Dodge Brothers wore tho first to build an all
metal (no wood) closed car the result being
Dodgo Brothers Business Coupo for which more
than 10,000 people are now awaiting delivery.
Baked enamel finish of courso, which is impos
sible to attain in any body factory Job, because
thoy all havo wooden frames yes every ono of
them, and a little strip aluminum cannot hide it.
Dodge Brothers wero tho first to announce and
build an all metal sedan, dedicated to business
use. It is cheaper in prlco, yet sturdier than any
wood and motal body, it is lighter in weight, yet
stronger, and it is also baked enamol cloar to
tho roof.
