A member asked me to ID this possible luggage rack but I don't recognize it.

Anyone?

Here are some photos.
It appears to be in a ZVW box to me but I haven't heard back on a possible part # on the box yet - it maybe missing or damaged

The third and fourth pictures are of a badge bar that mounts on the front bumper mounts of an early beetle You can also mount foglights on the top of it.
RareAir had one on his 54Ragtop. The pics are from an add earlier this year in England for one that was for sale for 185 British pounds. The first two pics in the ZVW box are of a different item.

Thank you.
I was wondering why those were sent as it looked like a different part.

Here's some more pics and they found it in an Accessories book

Everett I wonder how many of those exist? I don't think too many. That being said. Someone will probably come forward with a warehouse full of them in Europe.
