ABSTRACT:
An enclosed article carrier for mounting to an exterior surface of a motor vehicle. The article carrier has a pair of open hollow shells. One of the shells is fastened by a removable fastener to the surface of the motor vehicle. The removable fastener preferably is a quick-release fastener requiring simultaneous application of a rotational force and a force normal to the axis of application of the rotational force for engagement and disengagement. The second of the shells is preferably hinged to the first shell and swings over the lower shell to form an enclosed storage compartment. The second shell may be disengaged from the first shell, rotated one hundred and eighty degrees, and nested within the first shell to form an open article carrier.
