Luggage rack E bodies: Who has em?
« on: July 31, 2013 - 09:53:06 PM »
I rarely see Cuda's or Challenger's with the Luggage rack option.

O.K. maybe not the hottest option these days. But recently, neither was a /6 car.

Suddenly /6 cars are becoming a little more favorable to restore again.

Show em if you got em and tell about it.

Here's one on my '74 Rallye.  It was installed by the Dealer (according to the original owners).    I was considering putting one on my '70 Convertible, but my late wife vetoed the idea....

Mike, I'll try to grab a picture.

I put one on last year and I really like the look. It was not original to my car, but my trunk lid is sub par so I went for it.

I like them.

Hi;  Have one on our 70 RT/SE which was an option on the car.  The car was a dealer demo loaded up with options such as luggage rack, power windows, am/radio 8-track etc. Rob :canada:

Here's mine before I got her, and before her restoration.



I'm debating whether I should put it back on.  I kinda like the look.

I considered putting one on the convertible but just never did and really never found a nice one . . . . I  would rather have a luggage rack than a wing . . .  :dunno:

CODY had a nice one for a good price. I found one locally from a member so I went for it. It surface rusts over time since it is original..

gotta pull the car out and snap a picture !  :picture:
