Vehicle open roof apparatus

An open roof apparatus includes a link lock mechanism (90) for fastening a swinging distal end portion (63a) of a link mechanism (60) to a rear portion of a vehicle body (12) when a roof (40) is moved into a stored position. When the roof is moved into the stored position, the link mechanism supports the vehicle body between a portion to which a swinging proximal portion of the link mechanism is mounted and the rear portion of the vehicle body to which the swinging distal end portion is fastened.
