Car Bodies
Car body corrosion was a particular problem from the 1950s to the 1980s when cars moved to monocoque or uni-body construction from a separate chassis frame made from thick steel. This relied on the shaped body panels designed on newly available computers and the integrity of the body shell for strength. Unfortunately the design of corrosion prevention had not kept pace with this new technology.
