“This body-in-pfastic," says
Urbisci, "very quickly tells our
engineers things about the
soundness of tiie body, and its
feasibility for production - -that
is, for stamping it out of metal.
It also tells us if components
will fit properly onto toe body,
if wiring can he routed proper-
ly, and so on.”
Uvex plastic sheet produced
by Eastman Chemical Products,
Inc., is used exclusively in all
the prototypes where transpar-
ency is desired, said Urbisci.
Clear and resilient — yet re-
markably tough — Uvex sheet

metal to make it an excellent

The various body sections,
such as front end, rear end, and
fender and grill areas, are usu-
ally kept separate for conven-
ience of handling while under-
going evaluation. Eventually,
however, they are assembled
info a complete body.
The full bodics-in-pfastic often
turn up unexpected bonuses for
Ford engineers by allowing
them earlier access to a tangi-
ble body for developing "side-
line components,” said Urbisci.
Ford leads the industry 1 n

Urbisci, largely because their
engineers can modify body de-
signs for optimum sealing long
