Got this universal rack which fits pretty good. It’s a generic rack from the ‘60s by an English company who’s name escapes me at the moment.

Oh! I just saw this now, after my reply on the main thread. I now totally understand it and see the look you are building on.
Still not the one I most prefer, but again, totally understand it.
Cheers! |

Thanks man.
It’s very similar to some of the Swedish Beetle racks of the early 60’s.

It might have been for a Volvo then. Similar body shapes and widths.
