Wanted: Rack for 1952 Golden Flash ?

Hi! I need a rack to mount to the rear mudguard of me Flash, in place of the (redundant) squab seat.

Hi Flip and welcome to the forum.

Luggage racks come up occasionally on ebay which is where I sourced mine (and a craven box and panniers), however I recently noticed an advert on the back page of Old Bike Mart for classic racks made from stainless. The number is 07742 611811. Probably expensive being stainless but no worries about rust.

--just spoke with the guy, and he hasn't anything over-the-mudguard. -but he could make one! £££££!
I will follow your suggestion and trawl ebay, unless someone responds with one.
