wagon roof rails not the rack rails
I saw I wagon today not far from where I live. I noticed the rails running down the top of the roof. These weren't two rack rails, athough it had those too. There where four or five of these other rails right down on the roof. My 82 wagon doesn't have these. Where they stock on certain years? Or where they extra options you could get? Just curious.
Keep your stick on the ice.

Got em on my '83, but I'd never seen em before that. I think they were an option. Mine also has the adjustable cross braces. Not to mention the package cover/net in the rear cargo section. Whoever bought my wagon liked to haul stuff. Lots of stuff.

My 83 ad 87 TDs have the what I call ribs running along the roof. To me it makes no sense to have a roof rack to tie stuff down but yet have that said stuff sitting directly on the paint. Niether of my TDs have the cross bars.

I have seen those factory cross-bars in mint condition sell on ebay for between $75 to $100 (100+ on a good bidding day)...
they pop-up for sale every now and then.
