I am new to the club. I have purchased a 1915 Dodge Touring. I have no rear fenders and would like to know what years and models would interchange. Any information would be greatly appreciated.

The fenders that you need in the Master Parts Price List, Fifth Edition, July 1st, 1921 list two different wheel bases 56" and 60" which along with the car number determines which of two style of fenders that go on your car. Just so you know the car number is stamped on a small plate located on the upper toe board in the front compartment of the car, and also stamped on the right side member under the front fender near the front spring rear bracket, also it is stamped near the right end of the frame center cross member which is under the floorboard near the right door.
Where are you located? Good Luck

Dennis,

Thanks for your reply. The serial # is 23009,manufactured in July,1915. The wheelbase from the information I found states 114 inches for the touring. The 56 inches and 60 inches you mentioned ,is that the distance between the wheels on the same axle ?
I'm located in Maine. I will also need a front driver's door ,2 rear doors and a glovebox door. I have 3 doors that were included, they look like they belong to a Dodge as they have a small raised ridge about 3/8 outlining the edges,but the curve on the southeast quadrant of the rear doors is more like a quarter circle.

Woops looks like I read the book wrong it says 56" tread and 60" tread which must mean the distance between the wheels. Sorry about giving you the wrong information. You are right the wheelbase's given in the book are 110" wheelbase for cars below #95489 with a low radiator and 114" for cars above care number 108644 have a high radiator. Cars between 95489 and 10864 may have either a 110" or a 114" wheelbase. I would suggest that you check the Club Region to see if there is someone closer to you who may have a Touring that you could look at or try to find a auto museum to visit. Also go to one or more of the swap meets in your area. You could also provided you have the time go to the swap meet at Hershey, Pennsylvania which is the big one on the East Coast. Good Luck.

Brad Warner, get me $22 and come to the club dinner/meeting. There are usually about 100 members there, I can think of three 1915 owners for sure.

Doug,
Thanks for the invite to The Dodge Brothers dinner meeting. Unfortunately, I will not be able to attend Hershey this year. I'll be looking for parts and literature and will hopefully be there in 2015.

Brad
