weight saving
Does anyone know about how much an 84 LX hatch 4 cylinder car with a 351W stripped down to nothing but engine, front seats, a steering wheel and a tach would weigh? I'm talking nothing on this car, everything that can come off, has been taken off except for the engine with only an alternator and water pump on it, a battery, a fuel cell (no tank anymore), weld draglites, an 8.8 inch rear with drums, and a T5. I'm hoping that it will be somewhere below 3000 but I'm not sure if that is unrealistic or not. Do you guys know what these cars weigh from the factory with a 5.0? Thanks.
