Stutz 1928 model BB 30 does anyone have a picture?

[andy66]

Can someone clarify if information below is true?
Not real sure if Stutz had actually made a vehicle like this or not. Can someone tell me if this is fact? Saw this information at an Auto show many years ago while in Vegas (pulling from memory) but cannot find any current information on it.

Stutz Coach - 1928 model BB 30 - no builders plate on the coach - been told that there were only four cars like this produced. None in existance, they were scrapped for the aluminum during WW2. The car was shipped from the factory with everything up to the dashboard in place. The hood, grill, fenders, running boards, the steel side risers on the running boards bumpers,head lights, tail lights, and coach lights (on the sides of the spare tires) all of the wheels and spare wheels, all were factory -
The coach is all aluminum - the Stutz factory coaches were steel- The car may be a 2 door with front bucket seats - and a bench rear seat. The door windows and the side windows in the back seat are exactly the same size.

How many made?

Andy,
The car in question would appear to be the Phillips bodied two door sedan that came out in late 1928 and was sold through early 29 as a leftover from 1928. It was aluminum as you say and is quite different than the standard two-door sedan (coach). There is a photo of this car in 'The Splendid Stutz' book published by the club. To the best of my knowledge, there were two surviving examples of this body style. One lives in Washington State. The other was recently scrapped by someone and made into a speedster. It was a beautiful, solid original car. A shame, really. I do not know if he destroyed the body or if it is in a barn somewhere.
Best regards,
Brian
