According to the NATIONAL SERVICE MANUAL. the 1928 Chandler's were all Positive Ground.

What model number is your car?

I purchased a dist cap for my 31 6 cyl Hupmobile from my local NAPA store.

They apologized that I would have to wait 2 days till they got in in from the warehouse.

I was surprised they knew which one I needed and even had one anywhere in stock.

Another source is get a Hemmig's Mag and look for a vendor advertizing dist caps.

Hello,

Do you know if your 1928 Chandler Eight is listed in the data base of all known Chandler and Cleveland autos that the Chandler Cleveland Motor Club has? If you could send the serial number along with your name and location, it could be added to the list.

Thank you,

H. Wintz
