Hi all,
I have two roof racks for sale. Raising money for our animal sanctuary. One is a Thule gutter mount in good condition with no rust, some marring of load bars, end caps in good condition, gutter gasket supple with no deterioration, knobs in good shape (one with very slight crack, nothing of consequence), some damage to paint (not much) on towers (not hi-rise), load bars 58". The other is a Yakima with two Rocky Mounts bike racks with wheel forks. The Yakima itself is in good shape with exception of one load bar. Some rust on ends from damaged bar coat on either end. Quite repairable with little effort and expense. Other bar is in decent shape. All four bar ends will need new caps. Both bars are marred, 48", mounted on Q-towers. Towers are in good shape with locking cores, key, hex wrenches, mount pads, and little sun fading. Paint in good shape, little scratches. RM bike rack in better than good shape. No rust at all, very little paint damage. Trays are intact, no bends or dents. Some sun fade on all plastic hardware, no brittleness or damage. Hope pics are adequate. Asking $90 for Thule, $200 for Yakima/RM as complete unit. Otherwise $80 for Yakima, $120 for RM system. Buyer pays shipping. Any questions? Goes to highest offer! You'll be supporting a good cause.

EDIT: At this point, I am not willing to split towers from bars for sale. Sorry!

Yo! Bumpa!

 

Bump.

 

??????????

 

Do you still have the roof racks for sale? If so, let's talk.
Thanks, Hugh

 

I'm kinda interested in hearing about your sanctuary, is there thread somewhere?

 

Oh wow! I figure this thread was already at the bottom of the garbage bin!
Yes...I still have the racks. They are in the exact same condition as when I posted the listing. So, talk away!

As far as my sanctuary is concerned....there is no thread about it. But, I'll tell you a bit about it.
It's just me and my wife with around 200 animals. Mostly domestic....dogs, cats, birds of many kind, small exotics (ferrets, sugar gliders, an iguana), pot-belly pigs, a deer, a sheep, some wolves......many animals people have tried to make pets out of, but for sometimes obvious reasons it didn't work out. Most are "rescues".
We are technically and certifiably classified as a Humane Society with the state of Arkansas. However, we do not adopt out and are not open to the general public. We are very limited in our resources and manpower, so what we take in must very limited to the circumstances....i.e. some feral cat we have found and removed from a dangerous situation or a 2 month old pup wandering on the side of the highway. These are just two examples.
We are supported almost entirely by donation, most of which are private. The two corperate donations are for animal feed. We have our 501c3 papers qualifying us as a nonprofit organization....which means if someone wanted to donate money/goods/or services they may take a tax write off.
And as personal choice, we practice wholistic wellfare with the animals here as much possible. Many of the animals have special needs compared to the average, and we believe natural treatment and diet is the most beneficial to their health. We go with standard veteranary practices only in emergencies, as a last resort, or not at all. Just depends.
Well that's us in a nut shell....anything else?

 

You and your wife are pretty awesome.

 

Thank you for the compliment! It's encouraging. Being the amount of responsibility that it is, we don't always feel we've done enough sometimes. Which is kind of silly, if you think about it. I mean there are only TWO of us and TWO HUNDRED of them. Hehe! Would you say we are out numbered?
