Once on a highway outside Mexico City I saw a guy driving along in an absolute minimum car. Wheels, tires, chassis, engine, steering. No body, doors, windows, even seats. He was sitting on a wad of foam rubber. Since it was running, I guess we can say it was a car, though the police might not have agreed.
Take away any of those parts, though, and I think it transitions into something else. Junk, maybe.
