Hi,

Bought this rack at the Nationals but the legs are too short for my bug - I imagine it might suit a Ghia or those after a small rack for a Bus without modification. Otherwise the legs probably need some welding done to add 4-5cm to clear the curve of a beetle. No suction caps for legs, comes as I bought it. Seller told me it was kept up at Cooma if that's of any interest, the surface rust comes off easy with a bit of sanding and the black paint/metal seen in 2nd pic will show through.
Asking $85 or nearest offer as that's what I paid, pick up only from Chipping Norton NSW. PM or call 0417 274 453.
Cheers, Patrick.

Bump. Probably put this up on ebay soon unless someone knows where I can get the welding I need done cheap?

Get the suction caps that sit under the legs that might give you the height needed...
