Stutz owner sought


West Peterson

Recommended Posts

I'm trying to locate the current owner of the 1930 Stutz speedster that finished 10th at the 1930 Indy 500 with Lora Corum and Milton Jones. It was the only stock-bodied car entered that year (sans fenders, running boards, bumpers and headlights. It was called the Jones' Stutz Special, and carried #27.

I assume you are talking about the one that Rob Williams has for sale? See http://www.autocollections.com

1930 Stutz ?Jones Special? Indy Race Car This car was entered into the 1930 Indy 500 Race by owner Milton Jones, a Cleveland Sportsman. It is equipped with a 322 cubic inch Challenger 16-value engine. The car was driven by L.L. Corum in the 1930 Indy 500 Race. The car performed flawlessly in the race at an average speed of 85.34 mph, and finished the race in 10th place. The magazine, The Motor, wrote ?Perhaps the most meritorious performance of the 1930 Indy 500 race was that of the Jones Special?.
