I am restoring a 70 Stingray. It already has 4 holes in the back panel for a luggage rack. Holes are 41 1/2" wide and 14" high.

LYLE

Best to fill the holes as racks had 6 or 8 holes and never line up right.

I might have your rack. I'll dig it out and measure for you. Paul

Rev Ron

Paul, let me know. Thanks. Ron

If fuely falls through, I may have one as well.

It will definitely need to be rechromed, bit it is all there.

Rev Ron

Have you been able to dig out that 4 hole luggage rack?

emccomas

Here is an old picture of the 4 hole luggage rack. Sorry it is not a better picture. Like I said, it will definitely need to be rechromed. I am also thinking one or more of the plastic tips may be missing. And last but not least, I am not sure we have the mounting stands.

It has been a while since I checked on this thing.

Worth pursuing?

And I think I have answered my own question. What I have now you can buy off of Ebay for $25-$30. It is not worth the effort for me to dig this thing out (it is buried in the garage) for that kind of money.

Rev Ron

Thanks for the homework, so far. The vintage racks on Ebay are going anywhere from $35 to $200+, so it is worth it, I hope and expect. Once again, the bolt holes on the 4 hole rack have the dimensions that I need, since my Vette already has the holes in it and I don't want to patch them (they always pop out in some way). Thanks.

OK, I'll go out to the farm this weekend and dig up what I can. I'll be in touch.

I have a 6 hole that measures on the outside 4 holes 14 3/8" front to back and 38 1/2" left to right. If you or anyone has at interest let me know.

Rev Ron

I continue to look for someone with a 4 hole luggage rack. It has the measurements I need so I won't have to fill in the holes when I have it painted.

Rev Ron;

I haven't given up on the one I posted a picture of. It is somewhere in that garage, but the owners have filled the garage with leftover furniture, etc.

I will find it eventually, but I am not sure I ever saw the stands for it.

Rev Ron

Vettel fans, I am still looking for that 4 holer! (no, a luggage rack!), I don't know what else to do but to refresh this ad once in a while. Thanks.

Rev Ron, I measured the rack and it came in at 14.25 to center of holes and 36 inches the other way. It is in good condition chrome wise and may fit your difference in holes with two adapters. I dont know. I can send more info and photo if you like. Sorry for the delay as I was out of town for a while. Paul

Ron;

I really, really promise to get out to the farm this weekend (or sooner) and check on the one out there.

Of course, there is no guarantee that the owner will sell it. I don't know why they wouldn't, but who knows.

And again, I am not sure where the standoff posts are.

Still looking for that elusive 4 hole luggage rack...
