Wow! I can't believe how solid that is! Nice that the original paint is coming back.

You probably know already but, that roof rack is for a ragtop.

A ragtop roof rack sits higher than a non ragtop rack. The legs are longer.

Yes, but the roof rack has been on there since 1968 and it's rusted on there for good.
