Body Types and Designations

Description

This page lists the body designations of all vehicles considered MiniMopars by this website. These translations do not apply to Diamond-Star Motors cars (Laser, Talon, Eclipse).

Body Types

Below are the body style designations for each line of vehicle models. I have provided the model years that each body was in production. In 1990, all remaining platforms got an 'A' prefix. So the A-body became the AA-body, etc.

Body	Years	Vehicle Models
A	1989 - 1993	Chrysler LeBaron, Dodge Spirit, Plymouth Acclaim
C	1988 - 1993	Chrysler New Yorker, Dodge Dynasty
E		Chrysler New Yorker Turbo, Dodge 600, Plymouth Caravelle
G	1984 - 1990	Chrysler Laser, Dodge Daytona
