Thanks Rick, we are finished and ready for view. The exhibit does not really start until Nov. 16 as stated, but as far as the DB's we are ready for you to visit and see it. Lots of effort went into this from several people to make the room appear as a dealership would have in the teens and 20's. Several people loaned items I have never seen before, promo signs , or give away items that would have been to promote sales. The display is to represent that Dodge Brothers didn't just make family cars but commercial and foreign made DB's as well. Also the '26 Station Wagon that was just donated by Al Witek to the DB club is there. Thanks to all involved that had anything to do with helping pull this off.

Thanks. I think we have set a new standard for the dealership with all the decorations. SO far we are getting good publicity from Hemmings blog and AACA museum and DB facebook pages.

The display ends next week. SO if you've been procrastinating about seeing you better get behind the wheel. Thanks to all that loaned items and help put on the display.
