    Just picked this off of the market place! It is all there and the cups are even pliable! Don’t k ow how old it is, I am thinking 40-50’s?

    here is the roof rack tied to the roof rack with my backseat driver. And then on Betty-ignore the mess please.

    Found it! Is 1960 vintage Sears. I also found it in their 1957 catalog! How I wish I could go back in time and go shopping!

    That's a very nice one, the one my folks had for the '59 chev bel-air, was 4 suction cups, 2 wood cross-slats, & 4 woven straps w/little J-hooks that clipped under/over the drip rails, to hold the whole thing down onto the roof. Saw a lot of use, but wasn't "nice".
