Actually,
in the 1970s, chrysler/dodge was into unibody before most other car makers!
I can remember changing plenty of k frames back then working as a kid at my grandfathers shop!
Ford mustang and Chevy camaro's were unibody also !

MOPAR was unibody even in the sixties.. even the big sleds.
My old man had a few... the 65 300 letter series was coveted by my older brothers..
The Roadrunners and GTX with the big block.. if they were built up and drag raced a lot, they'd get a funky little "twist" in the body
