I wandered out to the shop(5 feet away) and looked at the rack on our 69
Sprite, The rack on it is very wide and bolts on with the front edge
flush with the leading edge of the lid. The bottom two legs are flush
with the lower edge of the boot lid as well. I have a feeling this rack
is larger than it should be, although up to this point I thought it was
an original piece. Can anyone tell me if this is correct or an
aftermarket piece.
