Do a search for 'weight reduction' on this forum. Lots of info there.

I'm on the same stage right now, deciding if I should jus strip off every single unneccesary stuff on my car,

Not very popular if you wanna be driving around with a hot chick on ya car, now everybody appreciates a fully stripped car

"Hell yeah, baby.. Battery relocation, spent 2 days removing sound deadener, AC is gone, dash is gone, back seats are gone, power motors are gone... Sexy, huh?"

Ill keep the dash,
But all the panel in the rear,
Sides, and door panel,
Backseat. AC, power steering
Cruise control, is going to tossed away

A hot car chick would b nice,
Not easy finding one, glad I got one already,

This thread jus made me decide to jus strip down the interior,
Imma post pics tomorow after I'm done
