Graham Brothers trucks

Are the vin #s for the Graham Brothers truck posted in the Dodge Brothers truck books or were they listed in their own vin # books?. What year was the badge dropped?

The vin # or the frame number for the GB trucks is in the sequence for the DB trucks. I have doing research on the frame numbers and have noticed the frame #'s of the GB trucks to be in the sequence shown in manuals. Not aware of any other vin #'s for these trucks. Just different motor #'s.

What badge do you mean? Assuming you mean the radiator badge. I believe the GB badge would be stopped in 1928 or about went the ownership changed to DB. These trucks would identical except for badges and hub covers.

Dodge used victory 6 engines, Graham used DA engines.

I have a sales booklet for Dodge Bros trucks. It is dated Jan 1929. It does show the Victory 6 engine only.

I have two DB series "E" trucks. Both have the DA 6 engine. So it appears earlier DB trucks had the Victory 6 engine. They had plenty of the Victory engines available until they phased the later DA 6 trucks.
