Luggage rack...yes or no..?

Re: Question about the t-top "thing"

I really always thought that you were supposed to strap the tops directly to the rack, and was somewhat appalled by that idea. ...

Sherry, the max. rec. weight for the luggage rack is about 50 lbs. (+/- 10) :eek


Factory for 77. You need the T-Top holder attachment & the rack has "pins" for it.

T-Tops will stay on at 100+ cruise.

:cool

Thanks for the info, Ganey :) Maybe I'll look into getting such a t-top holder attachment, if any aftermarket companies manufacture 'em.

I hope this photo works. I think it's about a 1/2 inch plug, It's hard to see, but I think it looks good.

Vette Specialties has aftermarket ones, and also has a rack if you need that also. They are a little expensive.

Thanks for the tip, Mike. Yes, $295 seems a bit pricey for a pair of stainless steel metal brackets, but if nobody else carries them, it's a matter of pay up or put up (or maybe manufacture them oneself :))

No luggage rack....... flatback and will stay that way, that is why they are not all red.:w
 
I got mine from Glenn Bodie for about $200 with shipping. These do not require the factory pins on the luggage rack and are supposed to install on any of the racks.

I just check mine occasionally and never worry about them. They have been on the back of the car on extended 70 mph drives as well as twisty mountain roads.
