Screenside at Air Museum

[72caddy]

During a rainy day at the beach (shool break vacation) I took the family over to the Air Base in Pensacola. Other than the amazing display of aircraft I found this Dodge Screenside in the center of some WW1 aircraft. It was missing the spark and throttle controls on the steering shaft but otherwise was in great shape. Even had the tools and perfect wheel caps.

Looks like a 23 so it would not have been from the first war. Mess kit is second war.

Look at the windshield posts and frame Jan. Looks to be 21-22 to me. 23 had the curved bottom on windshield. Does have the long rear fenders and headlight bar.

According to the book that i have, THE DODGE STORY , Dodge had the curved bottom of the windshield through 1927, although some commercial models had the straight bottom w/shield

"According to the book that i have, THE DODGE STORY , Dodge had the curved bottom of the windshield through 1927..."

Yes, but DB vehicles didn't START having the curved-bottom windshield until the late-series 1922 model was produced.

It also has the low radiator, which means it was produced prior to approximately June of 1922.
