Bkplunk64 Posted March 31, 2016 Report Share Posted March 31, 2016 Curious if anyone has done one or seen one. Permanent or removable. Quote Link to comment
Bkplunk64 Posted March 31, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2016 Would rather have something removable so it doesn't damage the the car. Quote Link to comment
MikeRL411 Posted April 1, 2016 Report Share Posted April 1, 2016 I had a clamp on [to the drip rails] with white rubber susction cups to the roof to protect the sheet metal and serve as a last ditch "Hail Mary" if the straps to the rail clamps failed. Over the years it dissappeared but still might be in some dank corner of my garage. But, I think you are seeking [and deserve] a factory looking installed unit, right? With or without longitudinal chromed rails on the roof and raised side rails to tie down the luggage. Usually seen on wagons, but shorter sedan versions were once offered by aftermarket providers. Good luck! Quote Link to comment
Swedishcadillac Posted April 1, 2016 Report Share Posted April 1, 2016 Garage Autoshiro in Japan has got it figured out... I would think if you Sourced a VW squareback rack you could make it work with a little modification.... http://m.ebay.com/itm/VINTAGE-VW-VOLKSWAGEN-ROOF-RACK-Bus-Squareback-Bug-Luggage-Rack-10-WOODEN-SLAT-/262301559485?nav=SEARCH Quote Link to comment
