Pinto - pin_toe

We do have a strange language.
If shass-ee is spelt chassis, if you have more than one, shass-eez is still spelt chassis. ???
I looked this up in Collins dictionary and it says....
"Chassis. the steel frame, wheels, and mechanical parts of a vehicle."
So all you kit builders, (shame on you ) when you go to pick up your chassis say,
"Oi, where's my wheels & engine then?"
