Find the right buyer including in range to collect, and that roof rack looks like it is worth money. It "should" be found a future if it is what I do think it to be.

It looks like the famous and seriously effective Clitheroe roof rack, much preferred by antique dealers. Last time I looked in to it the clamps and such like were still available. Huge wardrobe or such like to move? No problem !!!!

I'll be binning that

Surely worth a listing in the forum sales section and perhaps an eBay listing.

And it looks as if it has an additional centre mounting as well as the usual mountings. A tow bar with an additional centre mounting has been seen for the 240 and reportedly gave a good tow for a heavier than ordinary trailer.

The previous owner was an antique dealer. The rack is currently removed from the car as it's apparently been sold to someone else. I'll see if I can get it when I go back down to car tomorrow

Drivers side is rotten. I have a feeling passenger will be the same. If it's ok I'll give you a shout

Had a quick look today and it's not looking great. Once I get car I'll have a proper look

Sorry about that Mark, it was only a figure of speech! I was making the point that you could probably charge what you wanted as these are so sought after as opposed to myself actually asking for a price.

I'm sure you saw this recent post....
