Well this thread may already be in existence, but I have yet to find it if it is.
First off, I adore my car. It's old, not very shiny, and needs some things fixed. In that respect, it's just like me. =) I also live to be outdoors and go biking or kayaking every chance I get. For that reason, all my vehicles have rack systems. It's just par for the course around my place. Well, I took the rack off my saturn as I'm about to try and sell it, when it hit me..."I wonder if I can get this to work on the porsche"? Turns out, I could...and did. I'm very happy with it. I used an extra top I had, cleaned it up, and so if I don't plan on going biking or boating, I will just leave the rack top in the garage, and the other top stays in the rear trunk for if I need it. So, I'd love to see what others have come up with to extend their cars uses to include extra carry space, be it for luggage, bodies, what have you. Here are a couple pics of my setup, that currently will hold at least two kayaks and my bike. I am toying with the idea of a rear trunk luggage rack someday. But who knows. Joe |

Joe, that is one cool setup! I like the idea of having the top off while carrying boats. How do you like your remix? I have the Hoss (first LL boat I've owned) and I like how it handles, but its way too big for me. If I ever get stuck in a big pourover, it's gonna look like a pinball game. What creeks are you hitting over in SC? We have a crew here that goes to the Green quite a bit, and over to the Cheoah and other eastern goodies.
Mark, I really dig the bike rack setup too, looks pretty clean. I'm happy the car is short enough I can just toss my bikes up on the roof rack. Eric, I could probably fit an open boat up there too, you know, were I to ever put one of those filthy things near the car. lol (IMG:style_emoticons/default/poke.gif) Joe |
