Luggage rack

I am looking for a luggage rack for a Vega. It was a dealer
installed option that went on the trunk(Notchback) or hatch
(hatchback) of the Vegas, not on the roof. I have a car that has the
holes for it in the hatch but it was removed and I would like to
replace it. If anyone has one of these for sale, email me at
<a href="/group/cosworthvegas/post?protectID=137107198191059178024218175024247208098145211">CSWRTH1@a...</a> I could exchange the hatch but it was on a Cosworth
with a Landau top that I want to complete and put on Ebay. I think
it was part of the package with the Landau. Thanks, Chris

The is no "factory installed" or "dealer installed" luggage rack for
the hatchback that I am aware of.

If such exists is was probably an aftermarket part, not a factory
option or dealer installed GM accessory.

My car has marks on the hatch where I assume a luggage rack was
installed but I never actually saw it. Jeremy

Hey Duke check out page 11 of the 1975 Vega Sale Brochure. It sure
looks like a luggage rack on a hatchback just a couple of pictures
above your favorite option the Hatch Hutch.

I have also seen "Factory" luggage rack's for the hatchback on Ebay -
it was a long time ago and I did not get the part number but it was
a GM accessory number (the 99xxxx).

Anyway Paul Wicker could probably settle this question.

Later

Tim

I have the picture you are talking about Tim. On the green Vega in
that brochure. That rack is on the roof though. The one I am
referring to is actually bolted on to the hatch. When I have seen
these, they are on Vegas that have the Landau style top. I assume it
is part of the Landau package. I have not been able to verify that
yet. I will look through my Petersen's Book of Vegas and I think
there were some pictures in there that I can scan in. Later, Chris

I don't have a '75 Vega brochure, but I do have a photocopy of a '75
Chevrolet accessories pocket brochure that Byron Burnham diligently
kept to prove the legitimacy of his A-pillar acrylic wind deflectors.

No trunk or hatch mounted luggage carrier is shown in this
accessories brochure.

Look at page 11 of the Chevrolet accessories pocket brochure, there
is a picture of a Hatchback with a luggage rack and also a picture
of a Rear Deck Lid Luggage Carrier for a Camaro - Chris maybe there
was one for the Hatchback and NotchBack.

Page 11 ??? The photocopy I have of the '75 accessories pocket
brochure is one folded sheet - four faces. There is no page 11.
