Seems to me that the rear rack has been "pranged". I have the same rack (I think), and the attachments to the seat stays are aligned with the body of the rack. Mine had been slightly tweaked a bit by a previous owner, but I overcame this by drilling new attachment holes in the lower aluminum struts, so that the rack could be level at the same time with the upper attachments aligned with the body. Obviously this is why the modern universal racks have so much adjustability in the lower as well as upper attachment points.
Nice bikes on this page, BTW, as usual for this thread.
