Bay window buses with roof racks are cool! And there are so many Bay owners that their respective bays are sporting roof racks. Show us your pictures.

My contribution! (Note: This ain't my bus, I'll build roof rack for my bay in the near future!).

Thanks

You know, some enterprising VW bus enthusiast who lives in a country with low labor rates could make a few extra roofracks and offer them to his Samba pals....Just sayin'

I don't know how I got over for so long without the rack.

When were you here??

I live about ten minutes from the Bristol sign. They almost tore it down a few years back. But there was such an uproar that they decide to repair it. Peace!

State Street, right? Steve Earle wrote a Bluegrass song about a young man who came to ruination over the favor of a young woman. When he met her suitor on the street in Bristol he "Shot shot him in Virginia and he died in Tennessee". Now I understand how that could happen.

... I was in Bristol the last week in July. I traveled from my home to Floyd, Virginia for a long weekend, and then traveled the Blue Ridge Parkway from above Floyd all the way back to Cherokee North Carolina.

Thanks for the infor, buudy! I already made a decklid rack and roof rack for my fasty (a.k.a. Sharky 2). So doing the bus roof rack pose a challenge to me now.

Thanks
