AnnieH Report post Posted February 5, 2016 I've been asked to make a set of luggage straps for the roof rack of a 1956 Fairlane Country Sedan. I've been unable to find any photos of originals and am wondering if anyone has any bright ideas as to how to attach the straps to the frame of the roof rack. I'm thinking two straps - one with a buckle at the end and the other with a tongue, which could then be buckled up over the top of the suitcases. The tongue end could be looped around the frame and back through a D-ring or a keeper, but am at a loss about the buckle end as the buckle wouldn't fit through a D or a keeper. Any ideas?
