I think if its real its a pretty rare piece. Check out this thread; the guy who makes the Airstreme wrote about the early Spanish roof racks.

Yes, very rare, and pricey, here's another more elegant Zacarius with the rubber feet integrated into each foot casting, beautiful!

i could be mistaken, but i was under the impression that these fold out racks were made in switzerland(aero, biel/bienne).
i've had (and sold) a couple of them.

Thanks for the input guys.

I will hang on to it for now, knowing that there are only a few of them around.
