Having run two dealerships ( even though imports ,and they are different in ordering and such aspects), I know lots of mods can happen there without documentation, its "just done".... a body tag though is different, it would never be 'modified'...but cars could have or have deleted things at the dealership...
my favosite 'delete' at Volvo was the Radio..."we dont want a Volvo Radio, we are going to install an Alpine!"
guess what!? Alpine made the radios for Volvo!
or when customer comes back after 3,4 weeks and says "my windows dont work! its warranty repair" first thing you`d check , aftermkt radio and or speakers! 99.99 % of the cases , that was it! Aftermkt speakers mounted in the front doors were deeper and did not allow the windows to roll down!
