Just finished building and putting on 20 guage aluminum skins on the doors of a 55 Chevy and it made the doors a lot lighter. I looker at the doors and both trunk lids on the 914 and it looks more simple to do than the 55. On the doors the guard rail could be cut out while doing new skins. Has any one done this before and if so how much weight was taken off.
