1. A hanger device for a vehicle body deck lid that pivots between an open vertical position and a horizontal closed position to enable the hanging of clothes stored on a clothes hanger having a wire hook portion and a triangle-shape hanger portion including right and left shoulder supports and a trouser bar, said hanger device comprising: a peg projecting from an inner surface of the deck lid for engagement by the hook portion of the clothes hanger when the deck lid is open so that the clothes hanging on the clothes hanger hang downwardly; and an elastic strap having first and second ends, one end attached to the deck lid on one side of the hanging clothes and the other end attached to the deck lid on the other side of the hanging clothes so that the elastic strap holds the clothes against the deck lid during movement of the deck lid between open and closed positions, retaining blocks located adjacent the peg and engageable by the shoulder supports of the clothes hanger to prevent upward movement of the clothes hanger in the direction to dislodge the hook portion from the peg.
