nearchoclatetown Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 There are several Victory sedans in our Dodge Brothers club. Two I know of right now are Sport Sedans, with chrome headlight bars and six wire wheels. Myers Early Dodge Parts is a very good source of parts. What is it you are looking for and what part of the country are you located? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest maynard Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 Romar is also a good sourse fpr some parts & rebuilding such as water pumps etc. you may wanted to describe your dodge a bit more. I have 2 victorys & each are diferant. ! is a 140 & 1 is a 141. the 1 has wood running boards, shorter doors , shorter hood 19in spokke wheels & the interior is more plain. The other has a better interior. 21 in. wood spoke wheels steel running boards Higher body, longer hood , doors & etc. Md1931@bellsouth.net Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest StudeBig6 Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 I have a NOS rear fender (pass. side I think) for a 1928 Dodge Bros. I sold the car, but not the fender. It still has the factory stenciled markings on the underside, but has been primed. I am uncertain if it will fit a Victory (mine was a 4 door sedan, but I think it was a 4-cylinder originally).

Seldenguy Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 (edited) In 1970 I bought a 1953 DeSoto Sportsman hardtop from an elderly lady, at the time she told me that she traded in a 1928 Victory six when she bought the DeSoto, and thought the dealer kept the car. I went to see the dealer and the car was in his collection. She kept her cars in good condition and it was very nice. Wire wheels,sidemounts(I think), But what is fuzzy in my head I remember it to have A staggered seating arrangment, could this be? The dealer passed and his collection was broken up, I don't know where the car is today. But I remember it as a sharp,snazzy, sporty looking model that I would love to have in my garage today.---Bob Edited August 8, 2010 by Seldenguy (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nearchoclatetown Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 Sounds like it could have possibly been a four passenger coupe. They had a fixed drivers seat, a jump seat for the front passenger, and a 3/4 rear seat with a LARGE glove box on the left. Sound familiar?

Seldenguy Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 Thanks! It really jogged my memory, I think the jump seat folded out of the dash with the passenger facing rear or sideways? And the big compartment behind the driver served as the trunk for luggage also. The car was blue with cream colored wheels and a lot of spokes in each one. It sure was a very pretty car. Thanks again.---Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BVD2113 Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 I am buying a 1928 Dodge Victory. I have been looking at pic of many Victories, and all I have seen have louvers on both sides of the engine compartment, behind the dual mounted spares. Mine is a two door. Engine is not original, and I don't have any chassis numbers yet. This car does NOT have louvers on either side of engine compartment hood doors. Is this possible, or has someone done work on the sheet metal? BVD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does it have the four inch indent on the doors and rear quarter panel like the picture from Jack M? Pictures of your car would help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DLynskey Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 As nearcholatetown said the indent below the windows is the most notable feature of the Victory 6. All of them I have seen had hood louvers. Don Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 140 - 141 was the Standard series. Continue and Keep 'em Dodgin' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
