I found an old Opel roof rack from the '60s which looked like this:

I'm glad u like the roof rack :proud:

I noticed that similar roof rackets are made for vw beetle (ok, i admit it, i got the wood idea from there) and if you buy new one, those cost something like way over 200$ :genius:

. And that one has cost me just 20€ to make :closed:
