With a big enough hammer and enough bondo you can make anything fit anything.

IIRC the top of the 1930-31 have a more complex curve than 1928-29. It would require significant effort to duplicate the contour. Most likely you would cut up a good original and end up with junk.

For a top quality true restoration be patient and find an original. For a nice driver either be patient as above or go with fiberglass. As Steve Becker noted they do OK (and yes I am prejudiced, I will be laminating a pair of fiberglass ones today).
