Westy's are great for just about anything but hauling bulky stuff. You can
fit 4x8 sheet stock inside a regular bus or Vanagon, but not in a Westy. I
wouldn't recommend putting a rack on the fiberglass top for carrying heavy
loads like this either. You could get a gutter rack with long legs so that
it clears the top, but the rack ends up being pretty high off the ground.
