Greetings, For 1928 Chryslers(US cars), the Standard Catalog of Chrysler published by Krause Publications of Iola, WI gives the following information. Series 52: 4-cylinder, 170.3 cubic inches, wheelbase 106 inches FEDCO numbers; HW000P to HL685L Series 62: 6-cylinder, 180.2 cubic inches, wheelbase 108.75 inches FEDCO numbers: LW000P to LS101C Series 72: 6 cylinder, 248.9 cubic inches, wheelbase 118.75 inches FEDCO numbers; CW000P to CR838L Series 80(Imperial): 6 cylinder 309.3 cubic inches, wheelbase 136 inches. FEDCO numbers; EP000P to EP315C These FEDCO numbers are for US built cars. I have a Chrysler Master Parts Book which translates the letters as follows: The letters W,P,C,H,R,Y,S,L,E,D refer to the numbers 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9. I hope this helps. Have no idea what versions were sold in England or what names were given to them. The book you refer to "Chrysler in Competition, European Road Racing 1925 to 1931" by Ray Jones & Martin Swig may still be available from Automobilia, 1701 Van Ness Avenue, San Francisco, CA 94109 Phone(415-292-2700) FAX(415-292-2790) These numbers are about 4 years old. I have a copy of the book so if you're unable to obtain one, I could make a Xerox copy and send it to you. Bill Groskopf Libertyville, IL USA PS: Would you by chance be Bill Stiles? I met him at Chickasha last spring and we have exchanged some e-mails
