Abstract

A luggage carrier mounted on the exterior surface of an automobile body surface is particularly adapted for the removable attachment thereto of conventional pieces of personal luggage which in turn have been modified so that they may be readily and dependently secured on the carrier but may be easily removed for their customary use as personal pieces of luggage. Further, the construction and arrangement of the luggage are such that personal luggage of different sizes may be accommodated with equal security for all luggage.
