Local Alignment vs Carline Alignment

Hello
I was wondering if anybody had a good way of explaining local Alignment coordinate system in terms of automotives applications? Vs Carbody Alignment. Really difficult for me to fine clear easy to follow explaination

​​​​​​​Thank you!

  • Imagine an entire car broken down into thousands of different 3d models. Now, consider only one bolt from that assembly.

    Local Alignment: trihedron is on the bolt itself

    Car Body: trihedron is where the center of the car's engine would be (or another important engineering point that should be defined on the blueprints by the designers) and the bolt is at the XYZIJK location/orientation it would be in the overall assembly model for the car in reference to that defined "center point"
