So far I've got 500 pounds out and weighed. About another 100 pounds in the garage awaits the scale.

I'm estimating another 150 pounds easy from various sources can still come out as I haven't even gotten around to pulling the AC system or emissions even yet. Plus a 30 pound reduction from ditching the stock hood (44 pounds vs 14).

The down side is the 100 or so that I have to put back in in terms or lightened stock seats and belts, gauges. Oh, and the nitrous bottle is another 20 pounds to drag around. I don't think I'll quite make my target weight at this point. But I do think I can sneak it under 2400 pounds.

I'll try to get a pic up in all it's ugliness here soon. Just wait till I paint the exterior it's planned FLAT black. Every last person I've mentioned it too has tried to talk me out of it. huh.gif Who knows, maybe I'll even drive it some day.

Consider the cage. Yeah, I know it will add a good amount of weight, but after your first run in the "stitched together beast," we want you to still be alive to tell us about it.

Batteries not included so I bought an Optima. HA HA HA
That's funny. laugh.gif
