Trying to remember some weights from the changes that I've made over the years. My car weighs in at 2920# with me in it (170#) and 5-gallons of fuel and 25# of ballast. Its an AOD car too.

Air bag steering wheel => Grant ~12#
Door impact beams => out ~17# per side
Air bag system => ~10#
90GT front seats => Late 70's van seats ~37# each
90GT rear bumper => out ~45#
90GT front bumper => out ~47# (inc. fog lights)
Unnecessary wiring => out ~25# (carb conversion)
The wiring doesn't include computer & EFI harness
Glass moon roof => Lexan moon roof ~17#
Big battery => Dynabat ~27#
Sound deadener => out ~23#

I've got a complete list somewhere in my files that includes things like fiberglass hood, manual brakes, vacuum system, spare tire, etc. I've tried to weigh the differences of things as I've made changes to my car. I think those above were about the biggest hitters though.
