- For this build its very important that we not only make it look good but it also must be practical
as a camping & touring vehicle and when we are talking about a wagon, the roof rack is very important for carrying the swag, firewood, attaching an awning, and whatever else we decide to take with us on coming trips in the 60 series. We couldn't just bolt on some off the shelf racks though and have gone about designing our own custom made laser cut flat rack mount!

Nice video, I’m enjoying the whole build. Thanks.
Awesome as mate
Doing well
Round holes and dimple them would have looked more modern instead of the rectangular shape
Thanks for the feedback
I know the pain guys, many roofs have bloody curved sills and the prices of A/M parts are simply bullsh1t.
The issue I see here with yours is that all the weigfht is held by the screws and those tabs. Many get stuck on the weight of what they put on but forget about the real reason for the limit, hit the anchors hard or have a vehicle impact and that weight up there amplifies and usually keeps going. The "backbones" need to be folded under the sill to grab in the moment of brown-pants stop/hit.
That is a great point and yes we will be careful not to load it up too much .
@@smarttouringsystems-garage I have had urges in the past to drop the head lining and insert a doubler plate behind roof skin and use a heap of RivNuts to propperly secure a low profile rack on hard points like many light to heavy trucks have.
