Since the spacer 109 is arranged so as to pass through the middle 107a in the longitudinal direction, the support rigidity of the coupling portion 106 can be further improved.

  As shown in FIGS. 6 and 14 to 15, in the rear vehicle body of the vehicle, the vehicle body skeleton member 35 is a combination panel that is opened at the rear of the vehicle body and the rear combination lamp 23 is accommodated and disposed. The flange 103 is formed on the periphery of the combination panel 35. In other words, the support portion 103 can be configured only by forming the flange 103 in the combination panel 35 disposed at a position close to the rear fender panel 43 and the rear bumper face 22, and it is not necessary to greatly change the shape of other skeleton members. . As a result, the number of parts can be reduced and the versatility of the combination panel 35 can be ensured.

  As shown in FIGS. 2, 6, and 14 to 15, in the rear body of the vehicle, the combination panel 35 includes a combination inner 95 disposed on the periphery (lower corner) 32 of the opening 15, and the combination A combination side 96 disposed outside the inner width of the inner 95. The combination side 96 is formed with a plate thickness thinner than that of the combination inner 95, and the combination side 96 includes a flange 103. That is, by forming the flange 103 in the combination side 96 having a relatively thin plate thickness, the degree of freedom of the flange shape can be increased and the degree of freedom of the setting position of the support portion 103 can also be increased.

  As shown in FIGS. 2, 3, and 14 to 15, the rear body of the vehicle includes a rear wheel house 21 that is disposed on the inner side of the rear fender panel 43 and in which the rear wheel 18 is disposed. 21 is provided, and the wheel house outer 45 is provided with the outer support portion 105 that supports the coupling portion 106.
