ABSTRACT:
The present invention comprises a vehicle body assembly, 10, comprised of a series of welded together aluminum, stainless base or galvanealed steel panels 12, in interfacing engagement with companion thermo-plastic or thermo-set plastic covering panels, 12, adapted to be pre-colored and resistant to heat, moisture and the environment. The base and covering panel are interposed in facing engagement through the use of a flange, 13, and formed channel, 14, and further secured together through the use of silicon, 19, within the channel and various portions of vehicle trim, 16, of metallic, chrome or rubber material. The use of the covering panel produces a method for assembling the vehicles requiring the base panels to be precisely configured and fitted without painting or previously required disassembly. The pre-colored covering panels are merely inserted into the companion base panel thereby forming a vehicle body of a specific configuration easy to assemble and repair.
