Ron, I have to say I'd use it for holding a big cooler..... cause if your pushing that thing down the road your guna need something close by to drink. Sorry...... I'm ebo.....

Vette(s): 1968 Conv, 454HO,500HP-600TQ, TKO-600,3:70 HD rear,hotrod air, custom paint & suspension,1973 Ruby Red,T-top, 383 Stroker, TK)-500,frame off restro, 1967 Dodge Coronet, 340 stroker to 406, Dana 60
I installed a stainless steel carrier to my 73 & 77. As for the straps damaging  the paint I just  use some thick rubber tape on the straps where the seam is.  If the t-tops are installed properly they won't come off. On my 73 the frt bracket on the carrier moved so I drilled 2 holes in the bracket & taped them , then installed a allen screw to thighen the bracket to the rails.
