| Here is what mine looks like. I believe that I got the luggage rack from 
British Victoria.

I'd like to see a photo of how the luggage rack attaches

  The only holes along the bottom edge of the trunk lip are for the rivits that 
attach shroud to the chassis lip. And the 3 buffers.  If there was a drain hole 
it would drain into the trunk.

  I?d guess (only) that those four holes ? two at each corner, right? ? were 
for the attachment of a luggage rack. There was/is a rack that was attached via 
the boot hinge pins and by screwing triangular mounting plates onto the bottom 
corners. I?ve got one?.it?s a decent enough thing.
  I?m surprised that one fits repair patch panels to a boot lid. Doesn?t one 
just fit a new one?

  67 BJ8 (late), currently undergoing bodywork before paint.
  There appears to be 2 drainage holes on the bottom corners of the trunk lid - 
but as the Moss replacement patch panel doesn't have them I don't know if the 
holes were there originally, or if they are there as a function of previous 
bodywork.
  Pardon the poor picture - hopefully you get the idea.
  Thanks in advance,
  Neil
