1928 Chandler
Special Six Sportster for Five
Dual Cowl Phaeton
In 1912 Fred Chandler left the Lozier Motor Works to start his own company. The Chandler motor car company made cars from 1913-1929 in Cleveland, Ohio. By 1928 Chandler had over-expanded and was $500,000 in debt. In 1929 Hupmobile purchased the factory and the brand was discontinued.
There are only three Special Six Dual Cowl Phaeton's known to remain and this is one of them. This car is loaded with Cowl lights, Trippe driving lights, Search light and backup lights. Most significantly it has one of Chandler's noted vacuum power assisted brake systems and a centralized lubrication system. The entire chassis can be lubricated with one lever.
This vehicle was built October 28, 1927 as a 1928 model and was restored in the early 1960's.
