Give John Forsythe a call at Fremont NAPA auto parts in Fremont, Ohio. He should be able to get the parts you need since he has a 1932 Auburn 8 and what you are looking for are the same.

Hi,
Hagen Hiway Auto Parts' 1933 Auburn page shows that they will rebuild your distributor, that the original Champion Spark plugs are Unattainium, and that Autolite substitutes will fit.
They are in Pullayup, WA. A few weeks ago I spoke with "Rick," who matched up an alternate, but workable and affordable, distributor cap and rotor for my 812 Cord. ( I bought a "5 life-times" supply of these parts.)
This is their 1933 Auburn page:
www.hagensautoparts.com/1933/AUB ... c+GC-8cyl/
Good luck with your project.

1933 Auburn 8 105 Engine questions was created by nickg112
I have a 1933 Auburn 8 105 Salon Dual Ratio Cabriolet. Can anyone tell me what spark plugs to use and where would be a good source. I also need wires and maybe distributor components.
My distributor is a 660Z Delco Remy. Off the one side the Electrolock Distributor Connection assembly is damaged and I do not have the lock cylinder with cable connection. I am sure that I could change this and use a different ignition set up but I would like to set up original if possible.
Any Help is greatly appreciated. Thank you
