You can always add the wood if you like that look.
I usually just type Vintage or Retro Roofrack into ebay and you get the nice old ones...
sometimes you get pones that will post but they often go for alot more.

do you think that there may be a problem with the brackets and the doors from opening. the roofs apox 39 inch square so i thing the front two brackets would need to be over the front doors, there doesnt look like much clearance?, What size were you thinking ?. Any thoughts welcome. I want me first campping trip asap lol. 8)

I recently brought an old Desmo roof rack off ebay for £30 and fitted it. I think it looks great and you can fit wooden slats onto it with pipe fixings.
Will post a photo when it stops raining!
