I am wanting make my doors lighter but still be good for the street. Is there anything that I can realy do to make this happen? The doors feel like they are 50 pounds each and i would like to drop several pounds from them.

Oh yeah the car is a 73

i think that the '72 and older cars had lighter doors. also different window raising mechanisms. the weight difference, i think, cam from crash reinforcement; more metal.

i have two '72 doors, with glass. too far away to do you any good, i figure.
