[VAL] Aluminum(?) rods in Tradewind cupboard

[Kiley Mail <rkileyesq@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

This is going to be rather like the "Guess the Purpose of the Widget" 
segment on "Ask This Old House".

Looking for a little insight into a "mysterious" design.  The solution 
must be somewhere in the original literature - it is not in the user 
manual.  Or.... maybe it's obvious and I just don't get it.

I have a 72 Tradewind and  have been repairing my overhead tambour 
doors and and giving all the cabinetry a thorough go over.   The 
cupboard that presents the mystery is the one over the fridge, sitting 
to  the rear of the counter.  Inside (in front of the white sheild for 
the refrigerator vent) are two aluminum(?) rods.  They are offset from 
each other and look to be some kind of rack.  Nothing runs through them 
- no wires or pipes.  Any ideas as to their original purpose?

trailer - just a photo of the darn things in the Vintage Airstream 
photo archives)

Thanks for any solutions.
