Luggage Rack Baskets
A unique and beautiful accessory for your car, this classic basket offers sturdy construction and sporty good looks. Its generous size makes it perfect for a crosscountry jaunt or a weekend trip in the country. Made in a traditional wicker style with flat bottom and graceful domed top, it has hinged handles so you can carry it like a valise when you get to your destination. Handsome harness leather fittings with brass colored buckles lace on to your luggage rack for a snug and secure fit. We couldn't find a basket like this anywhere for our roadster, so we had one custom made. You can have one, too...from a very limited supply....
Custom Made for your Car
On our Austin Healey luggage rack the basket does obstruct the center rear-view mirror, so wing mirrors are essential. We lace the leather straps through alternate luggage rack bars, buckle them over the basket, and drive freeway speeds all day. We keep our luggage in a big plastic garbage bag inside the basket in case of rain, and carry the basket into our hotel at night by the handles - they'll hold anything you can carry one-armed. The generous size makes it perfect for picnics or weekends in the country. Leather fittings hold it snugly on your luggage rack. Hinged handles make for easy carrying. Custom made for your roadster!
Great for the Off-Season Too!
No Luggage Rack? No Problem! In its "off season" this beauty looks just great in a corner of the den, family room, or nursery. It's a practical home accent and a perfect place for linens, blankets, sewing, or sweaters. We've used ours for 3 years worth of trips, and after all the wind, rain, and miles, it still spends winters in our T.V. room!
