Default What is this ?
I was recently given this luggage rack from a guy who said it was on his 1965 convertible when he bought it. It is unlike any Corvette luggage rack I have ever seen. Does anyone know if it is a GM product or an aftermarket item. Could it be from a C3 Corvette ???

Thanks guys,

Tom

Not that I've ever seen. Looks more like something from a MG or British something

Default Certainly not from a C3!
Completely different from the one on my 69!

It's not for a C3....or for any Corvette, for that matter. It might belong on a 1920's touring car.

C2 racks will not fit C3s and vice-versa. Put it up for sale in the C2 section.
