ABSTRACT:
A luggage rack mountable to the top or back hood of an automobile for traorting luggage. The rack includes a substantially rectangular frame which is secured to the vehicle roof but elevated therefrom by corner stanchions. The cross-members of the frame are provided with slots positioned generally at their outboard ends. The slots are adapted to receive spring clips attached to a load bearing rack that is suspended below the frame in close proximity to the rooftop of the vehicle when connected to the frame. The rack includes a series of parallel load bearing members and upwardly extending support arms. The spring clips are secured to the upper end of the support arms. The suspended rack is fixed in place by the interlocking action of the spring clips within the corresponding frame slots.
