Go to Ace Hardware or any good hardware store and buy some small steel and aluminum stock. -1/2" od square stock -aluminum "U" channel that is designed to fit snug over a 1/2" of square stock.The steel provides the strength and the aluminum provides the good looks. Just drill holes where you need them and use the stock rods for the tie downs. You can hand polish the aluminum pieces and put a good coat of clear to prevent oxidation. I will have pics of this setup with a custom cover that is painted to match the car later this spring. Total cost about 10 bucks.
