Does not look like the one for my '65 C coupe .... but there were several variations offered over the years.

Check http://derwhites356literature.com/356-BT-6Accessories.html towards the very bottom of the page

I doesn't look like any luggage rack I've ever seen on a 356. I suppose the "legs" in the upper right could rest on the bumper if they had some padding, but I'm skeptical.

I looked at the catalog you linked to id10t - you could buy Speedster seats for a 356 B! I don't know why the hell anyone would want to do that. I think when Max Hoffman told the factory he wanted bucket seats in the Speedster they thought he meant they had to be made out of real buckets. They don't adjust ( other than sliding forward and backward) and there is almost no padding.
