Good evening,

I'm looking for a Model A accessory that secures the luggage. It is an iron scissor lattice that can be extended like an accordion. It is clamped onto the running board.

But I don't know what it's called in American language?

Thanks for help!

Luggage rack or expandable luggage rack. Most commonly associated with Model Ts, but they’ll work with either.

I got mine at a flea market several years ago, think it was $20, have not used it yet because I have not painted it yet.

I have two different types of them. One is like a lattice when open, the other is mounted along the side of the running board and is erected by lifting the top edge. A clip holds it in place. I have no use for either of them but shipping would be a killer for you guys, just like it usually is for us.

That thing is massive, the accordion one I have is much smaller

I have the accordion one on my 28 Roadster and my 31 Tudor and love having them. Get asked a lot of questions from the public about them.
