Is a DSM a unibody?

[fmars62]

I have searched but I keep reading different things, but specifically is a 2G GSX a unibody? Or can I take the body off of the frame? Im just asking this because if I do a restore I want to restore the chassis too so there is nothing old on the car like rust or anything that I will have to worry about.

Its a unibody.

Yes it is but it still has a front and rear subframe that can be removed for restoration and upgrade purposes.

auto makers have been doing unibodies since the early 60's since they found out how cheap and more faster it is to make a car doing it this way... even though a body on frame construction is easier to assemble, but more costly.

Looked under one of these cars lately? Probably the first thing you'll notice is that there is no frame.
