luggage rack on top of a sedan or 2 door car.

"Back then" we used to see lots and lots of rooftop racks, both for luggage, and in winter, skis. One time, going to Spokamentro in the much-hated 54 Nash Ambassador (with the optional rear continental spare tire) I got to see a suitcase fall off of a car up ahead. Just Like Vacation!!!! I'm not sure, tho, if they were driving the Wagon Queen Family Truckster
