get a stock steel type roof rack. the ones that are all tubing and don't have any wood. add on to it so that it fits your needs.

keep it cheap and use 1/2 inch conduit. that's all the originals are. design it to fit your needs. this is probably the easiest and cheapest method. start building it from scratch and the fab work and tubing gets costly.

Dunno if he's still building them, but it looks like a beast that can handle a load.

If not, I know there are guys on here that would build ya one. Just search on roof rack.
