Abstract
A tonneau board for serving as a rear parcel shelf of a hatchback type vehicle is removably pivoted at the front end on right and left rear parcel side trims. The rear end of the tonneau board is formed with a projection projecting downwardly. When the board is placed in its fixed position, the rear end projection of the board abuts against a rearwardly facing surface of a stopper portion formed in each trim so as to facilitate positioning of the board. When the board is in the fixed position and simultaneously the back door is closed, the rear end projection is clamped between the stopper portion of each trim and the back door so as to fix the rear end of the board firmly.
