I remember seeing a picture of a car on the www
once with that kind of idea incorporated...

If I remember correctly it had two pneumatic cylinders
on the parcel shelf with a pulley at the bottom and a
steel cable running from the door down, over the pulley
and then parrallel to the cylinder to the "tip" of the
rod... Kind of a big install, but I liked the idea...

Too bad I can't find the info or pics anymore...
