Re: Model "A" Era Accessories
The luggage rack on my Victoria is an original. I removed the faux wood strips, and I plan to refinish them with a red reflective paint. In comparison to the reproduction racks, the original rack's attributes are:
>Rack and faux wood strips are made of thicker gauge steel stampings;
>My rack has no evidence of being chrome plated, and it is not stainless steel.
I do not like the appearance of the luggage rack on my car, so I will be removing it except for overnight touring. In our run to the New England Meet at Jiminy Peak, Massachusetts this year, I was able to tie 2 large suitcases and 2 duffel type bags to the rack.
