Around the year 1896 - 1910, the vehicle body is made of
timber to the chassis or body. It is still affected
horse-drawn carriage with the body at that time. Wood used to have
thickness of about 10 mm. Connections between components using
nails made of wrought iron. To the roof of the vehicle, there
which uses ordinary cloth, canvas cloth, but some are
using a timber with the aim that the body can be strong.
In 1921, Weymann introduce floor construction
which became the backbone of the other body components, such as wall
vehicles and vehicle seats. The floor is made of a material intentionally
strong, while other components can be made from components
light. Connection with a floor wall using a steel plate
bolted, and to eliminate the gap between the connection usually
used timber. The panels are made of cloth, canvas and exterior
using a skin. However, these materials have a short life.
After the vehicle demand increases, then
required a rapid process of making body and can be produced
mass. The development of metal technology was involved speeding
technology development vehicle body, where the iron can be processed and
formed by using a press machine.
New in 1927 (see figure 1.3) as a whole body
vehicle is made of metal, whereby the vehicle body consisting of
various components has been made of sheet plate formed /
pressed. With the development of metal processing methods are increasingly

initially have a diameter that is not the same, the rear wheels is greater than

The roof of the vehicle (head lining) which was originally only made of
cloth, then shifts made of vinyl or plastic that is more
interesting shape and easy to clean. Assembly process was
relatively easy by using the adhesive (glue).
Passenger comfort in the drive to always

a steering wheel, shift lever to adjust the acceleration also
driver comfort and many other improvements.
Electrical systems also began to be developed. At first light
vehicles using oil, then developed using
acetylene (carbide) and now use a battery as a source of
electricity. Functions that used to light only as a means of lighting in
night, when this light is also used as a cue and ramburambu
in an effort to improve safety in driving.
The lights also be of interest for vehicle accessories

The development of vehicle body, also plays an important role
in terms of vehicle capabilities. The first time the steam engine vehicles
Cugnot created, can only walk about 5 km / h, but when
These vehicles can run at speeds above 100 km / h
