<p>A closure assembly for aerodynamically designed automotive vehicles having body sections (15) with door (5) or displaceable panel (20) apertures formed in generally curved exterior walls (15) and multipart aperture closures such as combinations of solid door panels (5) and windows (20) as well as roof panels (25) which are slidably mounted on the vehicle body section and selectively and rotatably movable within the curved exterior vehicle body wall (15) about the circumference of arcs formed by sections through the exterior wall of the vehicle body between closed and at least partially open positions. Each of the closure parts (5, 20) has a dimension in the direction of rotational movement less than the full dimension of the body aperture so as to be cooperatively capable of filling the body aperture when fully and rotatably extended to a closed position.</p> |
