You have 2 large weight savings right there, your sb and the wilwoods, probably a 140 lb saving over a 440 with stock brakes.
Has anyone fitted lexan in a 67-9 Dart rear window, just wondered if it could be done with it being concave.

Hey Bill,

I raced at Castrol for years. I think that I may have gone into retirement prior to you racing lots. I have seen your car though. I have a 71 Demon. The body is steel with the exception of a heavy fiberglass 6 pack hood, glass deck lid and bumpers. I made aluminum front bumper brackets. The car still has the majority of the inner fenders and all of the stock rad support. The dash is still stock with the factory gauges, ashtray, glove box etc. The floor and firewall is still original. The car has a full chrome moly cage and the back half is chrome moly round tube. The rear suspension is a 4 Link with coil over shocks The engine is an aluminum headed low deck with a power glide and a fab nine diff and I ran it with exhaust that exited in front of the rear tire. The exhaust system weighed 49lbs per side. The front k-member I built with a front steer rack. It has weld Alumastars all the way around with Wilwood Brakes. All of the glass is factory and the side windows roll up and down. I also run two optimum batteries. The last time that I scaled it which was right after I did the back half it weighed 2859 with out me in it. I think that the front end that I built may have reduced the weight by about 30 additional pounds. I think that removing the windows would be my next move. Both for safety reasons as well as weight savings. Best of luck with the diet.
