    The rails are from a French motor factors and are meant for Freelander (LR2), Peugeot 406 wagons of Renault Kangoos but bizarrely fit the VX and the tray is a generic one drilled to allow u-bolts to hold it in place.

    Its a "bitsa" but it works and doesn't look out of place!

    The 11th car (12 if you fix that missing Nissan Silvia picture after the 4th picture. ) is a Sileighty.

    Wikipedia
    A Sileighty (???????) is a Nissan 180SX with a Nissan Silvia's headlights, front fenders, hood, and front bumper installed, hence the 'Sil' in front and the 'eighty' rear.
    More info after the jump.

    There is some pretty nice eye candy there. Thanks for sharing!!!
    That GTO, love it, specially if it is the VR-4 version.

    I stand corrected my friend, a PS13 and a Sileighty are so close that I had to look at it again. The PS13 actually has a squarer rear section roof than a 180sx round hatch. Not used to seeing an unmolested S13 or 180sx anyways...

    Not to TJ but are those rails available, that may work for me.
    So I said to myself, I said "Handee"
    and this voice came back and said..
