[30 Ply 30U]

Hello all,

   I have recently purchased a very rare 1930 30-U conv coupe with rumble seat. This is the landau bar with roll up windows style body, not a roadster. I am very much in need of real photos, vintage or modern to study the conv. top construction, and landau pattern. I have tried everyone that I know, and there are just not many photos floating around. I have studied in great detail the 31 PA construction, but it is vastly different from the 30-U. Also if anyone has some old top parts that they even think might be 30-U, please contact me about them. I am looking for contact information for Don Fulton (OH), and Geo Ivanyo (NJ). These two gentlemen were listed in the mid 80's as having owned the 30-U conv. coupes, even though they were not correct, they may have information I can use. The only other club member listing ownership of this model has much less to work with than I.
