    For those who have incorporated a luggage rack into the trunk. What diameter tubing did you use to build it? Is it 1/2"?

    I didn't make one but used one from an Austin Healy that I got at a yard sale. I believe it fit a 3000 series. Bolted on like it was made for it.

    1/2" stainless. TIG welded. Design it so multiple welds are not needed at the same place.
