Glad to hear of your modification plans! Dont forget a set of mudflaps with the chrome trucker girls on em!

As for as roof racks go, a dealer installed utility system was offered for the w123- similar to the Thule & yakima systems. Not as cool as the chrome factory racks on the wagons, but certainly useful and period looking. Im not sure if you are going for a particular look or just for utility, but maybe you could retro-fit a vintage style rack for a VW? Could look neat, or be a total flop.
