I lost about 70 lbs just by switching to a fiberglass front bumper. The brace behind the bumper was almost as heavy as the bumper itself!

Im shooting to get my 79 Monte down to the 3000 lb range with out my fat *ss in it. I have yet to weigh it.

Once I take out the crash bars, the bumper reinforcement and change the hood I think Ill be around there.

Hoping to lose 50lbs myself before the season starts...

My 88 Cutty with 509 Caddy motor, me at 215, half a tank, and a full size spare was 3,840. Maybe the scale you are useing is off a little for the benefit of the scale house. :mrgreen:

3400-3500 stock seems normal - lots of options, junk in the trunk, full tank of gas and we're at 3600, 3700 - then add driver

My car is pretty stripped down and will continue to slim down.

3000 isnt hard to reach if you pull alot of the "creature comforts" out of the car but it also depends on what your purpose of the car is.
