Dodge Standard

Dodge standard 4cyl

This very powerful and big tourer is an older restoration that is still in very charming condition. It has a 4 cyl. sidevalve engine with a capacity of 212.3 cui, which is equivalent to about 3.5 litre. Even 6 cyl. cars of the late 20's and early 30's could not usually match that. Mechanically it is in good condition, starts instantly and drives nice with its longstroke low revving engine.Being that old it has rear whel brakes only, which I never found to be a problem as long as you apply some forward thinking. The paintwork has a few blemishes, something that could be called ' Patina ', and nothing to get upset about. Bodywork is very straight. Interior is very tidy. The old hood and sidecurtains had perished due to the harsh Australian sun and have just been entirly remade by one of Australias foremost tradesman. Tyres were similarly affected and the car therefor comes with brand new 24 inch rubber. It has got some period accessories like a tyrepump mounted on the running board, a spare fuel tin and a period jack. It also comes with a detachable luggage rack on the back. All in all a very attractive grand old tourer. With the added value of the new wet weather gear and new - expensive - 24 inch tyres. The car is offered for sale imported into the UK - and therefor the EU.
