Re: Luggage rack for '83 Eagle

["Jim Blair" <carnuck@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

A: I take it you don't have a wagon? Most of them came stock with one, BUT 
the old wellnuts are usually rotted and ready to pop off. (the water leaks 
make the headliner hang down too) I took my headliner off and replaced the 
rubber coated nuts with nuts, lockwashers and fenderwell washers with 
silicone glue to seal the holes. Made for a nice solid rack (and who doesn't 
love one of those? <G>) but another possility is from Yakima or Tule that 
gutter rail mounts. (make sure there is clearance from the door opening and 
closing and the ends aren't where you will whack your head as you get 
in/out) I had a set that may have come from an Eagle that looked homemade 
from bedrails. YMMV

PS: Do you know about the amc_eagle@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx list?

Hello All,
I'm buying a kayak and want to haul it around on my 1983 Eagle.
Does anyone have any experience with a roof luagge rack for one of these?

Thanks
