This weekend, my brother Barry helped me build a roof rack for the Bus. Barry is an extraordinary metal fabricator and quickly cut and formed the tubular steel pieces. The bottom of the roof rack is lined with expanded sheet metal, which is welded all the way around. All the pieces were welded together into a one piece modular roof rack design that can be easily installed for a trip and then easily removed once the trip is done. It fits into the existing fiberglass luggage rack that is molded into the poptop roof, and expands the cargo carrying capacity. It will be perfect for carrying firewood, extra gas can, folding chairs, etc. I think if we took one or more of these to a VW swap meet, they would sell easily. Thanks Barry. Great job!
