ABSTRACT:
An improved closure panel hinge assembly is provided that gives an improved opening motion to a closure panel, such as a deck lid that has an edge disposed close to a vertical plane associated with the vehicle, such as the plane of a backlite. A pair of horizontal guide tracks and sliding pivots cooperate with an interconnected hinge strap, control link and follower link to shift the edge of the deck lid away from the back light as it is initially raised. Continued raising of the deck lid tilts it upwardly to an open position.
