Heres a little addition of my randar super latches for my beetle.
In this world today there ain't nobody to thank,
Just blame it on the kids and toss 'em into the tank.
And if they yell for justice we'll hide them from the light,
So that when they learn the truth they won't be scared of the night.
Put the key in the hole when you get home from school.
I'll be home by 8:30, your father will too.
If you cause any trouble then I don't want to see,
'Cause you'll go straight to bed and you won't have no TV.

An old shot that deserved to see the light of the interwebs.
I went out from the gothic cathedral of Strasbourg (Alsace, France) when I saw this man leaning against the wall and consulting the guide. More than him, the position just below a gargoyle hit me, which in this case seems more intent on reading a latch that not to intimidate anyone who crosses the entrance.

Uscivo dalla cattedrale gotica di Strasburgo (Alsazia, Francia) quando ho visto questo signore appoggiato al muro intento a consultare la guida turistica. Più di lui però mi ha colpito la scena e la posizione proprio sotto a un gargoyle, che in questo caso sembra più intento a leggere a scrocco che non a intimorire chi varca l'ingresso.
This shows the rack attached to the basket. Or vice versa. There is a black plate that is welded into the rack that was meant for the original rack mount. I drilled a hole for the lower mount hole on the bail buckle. This is the most critical part. If the hole is too low, the buckle won't have enough tension to stay latched. For the upper hole, I just sandwiched the rack between two short pieces of aluminum. I will paint these black eventually, but left them silver for the photos to show what's going on. The slight "sproing" I created with the front tongue holds enough tension.
you have to look closely to see all that is going on here. start with the window on the shed to the right and then look at the braces, coverings, doors, windows, rust, latchs & patches as your eyes travel back across the building to the left.
I am very fond of the colors, they are perfect to me. The light that we had that day seemed almost made to order. Took me a second to notice the small bolt driven in above the bar.
This and probably one more after this and I'll be done for a while with the Kite's. This guy was coming in so fast and never expected him to make the landing in time until i saw how those talons latched on to that branch, his body and branch went forward and had to wait until they both recovered to shoot, this it's the result.
The latch on the big heavy gate kept pulling out of the wood so I filled the hole with glue and stuck some toothpicks in and trimmed them off when the glue dried. This will hold !
