I could not find the differences in weights, but I know someone must have a pretty close idea for these:
- Fiberglass doors, empty vs Two steel doors (73) with window mechanisms? - Fiberglass hood, with headlight covering vs steel hood and two popup head light assemblies? - Fiberglass trunk lid with pins vs steel trunk lid with hinges? I already know the cost of the parts but I am curious how much weight I'd loose doing the above swaps? Thanks for the help. |

kellzey,
I think its only about 1lb difference in the fg versus steel front valance.. URY914, with your door skin how much is the total weight once you put it onto a frame of some sort?.. also, the front and rear trunk panels you mention.. are those weights for skins, or panels with hinge attatchments? finally, does anyone know what a replacement roof like roger sheridans weighs? thanks everyone. |
