Ground was broken for the garage in 1911, with additions to the structure in 1917 and 1927. Its initials stood for owner Clarence Oliver Dangberg. Later, under the ownership of the Fred "Brick" Hellwinkel family, the C.O.D. garage became the oldest continuous family owned franchised dealership in Nevada. Over the years the company sold Chevrolet, Buick, Ford, Hupmobile, Jeep, Lauson Tractors, and Goodyear Tires, offered AAA towing, and sold gas under Union Oil and Shell canopies.
