Madness, did you ever figure anything out with this project?

 

I was an air-cooled vw man first, and would like to apply some old school style to my 620.

 

The 620 slammed on fuchs is too sick! (thats gotta be a single cab truck rack on there)

Way back when I had this 69 Volvo 142 that I had gotten a gutter mount ski rack for, hauled all sorts of stuff on it... including skis, still see them at garbage sales from time to time dirt cheap. Didn't leave a mark on the car. Slice of plywood and a couple u-bolts makes 4 lotsa storage. Aerodynamics is for wind tunnels, not gettin places:D

Form follows function. A truck has a bed, therefore doesn't need a rack. Any rack on a 620 or 521 is going to have to be really low and have very few rails to look good, which means it will be basically a non-functional rack.

 

My .02, racks look good on wagons, that's it. They're functional on cars, but still don't look that great.
