FS NSW - Metal roof rack
patbot - May 27th, 2011 at 02:22 PM

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?

cut some tubing that fits over the legs and cut them to the length needed

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