off....

Thanks to all for your replies!

Funny you should ask, I spent this morning cleaning car parts out of my
mother's house as we prepare to sell it.  I have a rack from a 1969
parts car.  I've never drove the car before removing the rack 25 years
ago.  Rack seems fine.  You can have it.  I'm in Orange County NY.

I want someone to use it not sell it.

My TR6 project car has a healthy rack but the boots are damaged. I have new
boots but they a real challenge to install. Not only do the tie rod ends
not want to come off, but also, there isn't enough room to get one's hands
in place to stretch the new boot onto the rack tube! I fear it will have to
come out just to get the boots and new tie rod ends on!
