Nice roofrack. Just to confirm, did you fabricate it yourself?

Have a chap in Roodepoort that made it for me of a Sterling Jig

It looks authentic and era appropriate. The problem with a lot of roofracks is that it is too square and doesn't follow the curves of the roof.

If all goes according to plan then the first coat of paint will be applied tomorrow

Then again, nothing goes according to plan with these vehicles
