I made the plunge and decided to start cutting into the car and lighten her up....I've pulled the hoods, gutted the doors, pulled all the glass except for the windshield, and have cut off every tab and extra piece of anything metal on the car...
Total weight taken out so far = 286 lbs! (according to my bathroom digital scale)... Here's a few pics.... The first one is the doors gutted... Bill P. Attached image(s)

JP; what a lot of guys do around here for the window openings is bend up some sheet aluminum and simply rivet it on. You can make a whole "door panel" of the stuff, with a section bent-over the window channel at the top.
I have to run working door windows in my class, otherwise I woulda' paid more attention to this stuff and taken some pics (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) My car is going on a diet in '04 too. I still have a few projects ahead of that on the list, though. Mostly oriented around keeping me alive and race-legal. |
