But I can tell you I bought a high roof transit out of the scrappy for parts once and it had a car sitting on it's roof when I looked at it. Definitely did not collapse and only minor damage to the fiberglass
Yep I agree I remember years ago in the breakers yard seeing a high roof smiley being lifted from the back doors with a big forklift and the roof bars did bend upwards a little but it was lifted and moved and was complete minus the rear doors so they are bloody strong because the whole van was on the point of the forks on only 1 of the roof bars talking all the weight with the way the van is nose heavy it's wasn't lifting level.
