Jerry, I made mine out of some strap iron and 3/8 round stock. It is up above in the garage right now. I will be home in a couple of weeks and can email some pics to you if you want. Clyde

Contact John Benson he makes the best and is good to deal with. We did an article on these in the Model A Times a few years ago and he advertises there. Someone has already posted his info above.

Outside of a cell phone and towing service card, this is the best accessory in my car. You might wish to splurge for the 4 way holder. A nice place to clip the cell phone, iPod, etc.

Go to MacDonald's. Get their paperboard cup holder. Screw it to a wide, hefty slab of plywood. Set it on the floor or on the seat next to you.

I have a 2 liter 'rack' in one of my cars. They type you see in the grocery that holds 6 2-liters. The only mods I made were to make one of the holes 'water tight' so condensation wouldn't get in the carpet and put no slip material on the bottom.

Allows me to have a big gulp cup in one hole, my camera in another, business cards & note pad in another & so on. The best part is you can get one for free usually just by asking your local Pepsi or Coke route driver.
