Abstract: A carrier holder for automobiles and the like including a line having a closed loop portion at one end thereof and an enlarged plug at the other end thereof. The plug is adapted for positioning within the trunk or hood compartment of an automobile such that the line will project outwardly thereof through the space between the trunk or hood and the adjacent fenders. A suction cup is positioned along the line proximal to the plug and serves as a temporary positioning element for positioning the device with respect to the car fender. In position, the closed loop portion of the line extends outwardly over the fenders and serves as an attachment point for securing cargo to the automobile. Generally, two such devices are used in tandem so as to support large loads such as lumber, tubing and the like from the side of the automobile.
