1924 Dodge Brothers Rat Rod Roadster 327ci V8 - Automatic - Stewart Warner Wings gauges - Massey Ferguson Tractor hood and Grille This Hot Rod is made from a 1924 Dodge Brothers roadster body with a Massey Ferguson tractor hood and grille. This is the REAL DEAL; not a replica or kit car. The hood has been modified so that it lines up perfectly with the body as can be seen in the pictures. The original frame has been modified in order to accommodate the running gear that includes the Chevy V-8, the 3 speed Turbo 400 automatic transmission, and 9 inch 3.00 rear end The workmanship is very well done by a previous owner/builder. The instruments are all Stewart Warner Wings gauges and they all work as they should. Oil pressure, Water Temperature, Fuel level, Volts, and Speedometer. This is a rat rod with some fun parts such as the glass doorknob that secures the hood and the antique T V handle on the trunk. The trunk is secure and is opened by a hidden release. The seat is from a school bus. There is both an engine fan and an electric fan that is controlled by an adjustable Thermostat. There is also a switch under the temperature gauge to manually turn on the electric fan but the engine does not overheat so I haven’t had to use this switch. The switch under the fuel gauge turns on the electric fuel pump. This switch can be left on so the fuel pump will come on when the ignition switch is turned on. The tilt steering column includes turn signals, and the 4 way flashers. GM disc brakes are on the front. A Folder comes with the car that has some information about parts used in the build and information about the switches and operation of the car. This is a first class Build!; Thanks for looking and feel free to give me a call at 440**488** 5132 Bob Weisberg
