ABSTRACT:
A door hinge mechanism for a motor vehicle is disclosed. The hinge has four rotary center shafts, two of which are supported at positions on an end of the side door, and two others at two positions on a surface on the side of the vehicle body disposed adjacent to the end of the door. A first arm is rotatably connected at its opposite ends to one of the rotary center shafts on the vehicle body and one of the rotary center shafts on the door. A second arm is rotatably connected at its opposite ends to the remaining rotary center shafts. A rear end portion of a front side fender is located at a position adjacent to and in front of the forward end of the side door. A portion of the end face of the side door is disposed outwardly in the widthwise direction and extended forward from the end face of the body of the vehicle to form an extension for covering the outer surface of the side door hinge mechanism.
