I had a set of Yakima towers and bars that I inherited from a SIL. One bar
was too short for the ML - but a pipe (1" ?) from Lowes made a one that was
great.

My .02 cents worth.
I've been welding for more than 50 years, and during that time progressed
pretty much through all processes for joining all types of metal [ie worked
for a while doing weld repair on turbine engine blades (very complex exotic
metals and specialized weld repair). However, I had

A color change would hurt value if you want a show car, or want to eventually
sell it as a show car, because it's no longer original.
Otherwise I think it's just whether you like the color or not, and how well the
paint prep and application were done.

So more info on these. The 73 apparently was originally tan when the PO
bought it back in the early 90s. He had it stripped to the bare metal
and repainted with 7 coats signal red, and 5 coats clear. Supposedly
about as close to a perfect job as you can get. Does a color change hurt

Pair it with this one, but it sounds like the problems might overlap.

And IIRC, Yakima used round tube crossbars, so you could probably make
your own crossbars from pipe.
I have a set of Thule gutter towers and two different lengths of
crossbars. Don't think I used them since I got rid of the Plymouth
Horizon before I bought my first Benz.
I have a couple sets of those with bars. Former spouse had them on the SD to
carry kayak and paddle board. They actually work quite well. I think I had them
on the TD for awhile as it does not have cross bars
