Hi I have a 1930 Phaeton and would like to re-upholster the interior and roof.
I would like to have some pictures of what it should look like. My top material is missing but the wood frame is in good condition.
Is there anybody that may be able to assist or steer me in the right direction?
Thanks

Hello Francois
You should post this in the 29-32 technical section for more people to see. I believe your best bet would be to contact LeBarron and Bonney Company in Amesbury,MA. They make interiors for our old chevys and possibly a roof for your car.

No. Lebaron Bonney does not do CHEVROLET INTERIOR KITS.

Their Hampton Coach division used to do some stuff but they are no longer around ?????

If you want a new top its going to have to be made from scratch, same as I am going to have to do with my 35 roadster and 35 phaeton.

Telephone or email them for an instant answer.

Hampton Coach is still around or their demise is brand new; http://www.hamptoncoach.com/

They don't have everything for all Chevrolet's but I would try there first.

I am one of LB/HC factory recommended installers. Just picked up a roof kit for a 31' Friday and they are making my 32' Olds DCR interior. They are definitely in business as of two days ago. I said to get in touch with LB because the op is from SA and thought it would be easier to research the info. The home page shows the HC line and looking closer, it does not show any phaeton interior listed.

Hello Francois,

I can send you detailed photos of the top and interior of my '30 Phaeton which is restored to original. Just send me a PM or email with your email address.

All the Best, Chip
