1. Body and Chassis
• Body (aka Autobody) is the outer fiberglass/metal shell of an
automobile (as opposed to the chassis)
• http://www.dictionary.com/browse/auto-body
• Chassis (aka Vehicle Frame), is the main supporting structure
of a car, i.e. a frame upon which the main parts of an
automobile are built
• http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/chassis
• The construction design can be:
• Body-on-Frame (separated chassis and body)
• Unibody (integrated chassis and body)
