1987 c4 f/frame rails

[offshore]

how do the front frame rails attach to the unibody? welded,bolted,epoxy? and where is the connection point? How much torque can this body take?

 

[ErnieN85]

The frame itself goes from the front bumper to the rear suspension. There is a aluminum frame bolted on ther which goes to there rear bumper. The car is not a unibody! the body itself is epoxied to the frame. as to how strong? that is hard to define, it's not as strong as a C5 but stronger than a C3

so this car has a full frame but it's hidden in panels?
