ABSTRACT:
A front body structure of a cab-over type motorcar includes a front cross member extending transversely in the fore end of the car body, a pair of side sills longitudinally arranged along the side ends of the floor and a pair of front pillars extending vertically at the front side portions of the body. The lower portion of each front pillar is bifurcated into a fore branch connected at its lower end to the front cross member and a rear branch connected at its lower end to the side sill. Each of a pair of front tires is disposed between the fore and rear branches of the front pillar. With this construction, the front body of the structure has an increased rigidity and a large strength against shock imparted thereto.
