A body of automotive vehicle, and more particularly of mass-produced passenger vehicle, characterized in that its general configuration comprises two opposed irregular frustums of pyramid with non-parallel bases, assembled at their major bases, one frustum having an elongated shape converging to the front to constitute the passenger compartment and the front portion of the vehicle, its minor base constituting the front face and its major base corresponding to the greater cross-section of the vehicle body, which is located substantially at the rear of said passenger compartment, the other frustum being shorter and converging sharply to the rear, with the minor base constituting the rear end face of the vehicle and major base coplanar with that of the first or front frustum of pyramid, the perimeter of this major base following a contour slightly parallel to that the major base of said one frustum but being slightly recessed in relation thereto in order to provide a continuous, sharp-edged shoulder along the perimeter of said major base, on the faces corresponding to the roof and to the upper portion of the side panels of the body. |
