Anyone have any good pictures of the rumble seat spring assemblies from when they restored their rumble seat equipped 1929-30 coupe? Hoping for pictures with the upholstery removed. Thanks.

I do not know if they are the same but would be a start. I'll send a PM with my e-mail.

A Coupe and Roadster have different springs but will look similar. The actual measurements will be different but that can be adjusted to fit the lid and base.

So I got lucky today and picked up as complete rumble seat spring set with wood for patterns. Also got the wood for the lid. Found locally. Kind of wondering why no one could provide pictures though? ANyway I have what i need now.

Several of us would have helped. I don't have any of those parts. Glad you found 'em.

Thank you, yes it was a fortunate find. The gentleman also gave me several of the brackets I needed for the back corners of the kickup .A few more things to find and once my Sedan is together I can start the resurrection of the Cabriolet.

Saw this old post. Wondering if you made in progress or ran into any experts. I’m trying to recreate from scratch a rumble seat for my 1937 Chevy sport coupe. Thanks in advance if you have any ideas or suggestions.
