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 have a set of light doors that I am planning on putting on my 73 when I redo the paint. They are quiet a bit lighter. I figure if I am going to have the extra wieght of door bars it should atleast span the gap in the door and add some chassis stiffness, not just hang out there and make the door heavy.
