ABSTRACT:
A hinge for mounting a vehicle door for swinging between open and closed positions on a vehicle body. The hinge includes a door section adapted to be attached rigidly to the door, a body section adapted to be attached rigidly to the body, and an intermediate section pivotally connected to the body section and detachably connected to the door section to enable the door to be quickly removed from and re-installed on the body. To facilitate such removal and re-installation, the door section of the hinge carries a pin which is adapted to hang in a notch in the intermediate section to support, locate and stabilize the door as it is being removed and re-installed. The body section and the intermediate section of the hinge carry components of a plunger-type hold-open mechanism which releasably holds the door in partially open and nearly fully open positions and which remains in its entirety with the vehicle body when the door is removed.
