Looking for a long roof rack the type that used to be fitted to LWB Landy safaris and like we used to have on our military Landys when I was in the forces.

It looks like an ordinary rack but continues forward OVER the bonnet with two support bars mounted at the front somewhere? Its ideal for carrying big tents and boating stuff. It is HUGE!!

Any ideas please?

I take it you mean an expedition roof rack like in the pic below, i would think you would have to get one made.

If you are any good with a welder and have the time, you could make one yourself out of box.
