ok so this started as a small project just to carry some stuff on a trip, but snowballed in to this 3 day build. I think it turned out pretty good. here is a link to my blog with some pics http://asthewrenchturns.blogspot.com/

 

not bad....something new and different me likey

 

Nice! I like the install idea to the body.

I've hesitated going with a Yakima type because I don't like the clamp = scratch/discoloration install.

Your idea is clean, simple and easily filled and covered if removed.

Also, good luck on the VW pickup. My dad had a crew cab (3-door) version and I remember driving it. A great ride!

 

Very unique, I like it. That's the kind of thing its all about.

 

HA HA---looks like a sun deck!!

 

is it easy to take down?

 

That looks awesome, love the tow hook and the Celica hood conversion too...

 

Hahaha, I'm glad to see your VW roots showing on your Japanese version of the Fridolin. Nice to see you have THE original BOX on WHEELS

 

i love the stripe on the bottem of your car...normaly i hate them..but that looks awsome. and coming from the VW world i deff like the rack.
