My chromemoly tube chassis 1970 Cuda with similar parts with thin steel replacement firewall and steel floor weighs 2750 lbs. with me in it at 260 lbs. driver race weight with a iron 400 block and Powerglide Mr.Cab Racing and winning with Mopars since 1964. (Old F--t, Huh)

It was 2550 but with me, I removed the fiberglass doors and put stock doors with stock wind up windows, R3 block, alternator, racePak and accessories, and a few other items to make it a more old man friendly race car.

I'm going to have my pretty stock-heavy in many places 74 Rallye Challenger down to 3100 street weight, and in just my first phase ov weight-reduction. Thats a 360, 4-speed, no superfancy stuff like light brakes or aluminum heads... and BIG tires on all 4. Certainly no silly lexan or (structural) fiberglass. What are you doing wrong? Curbs on a 72 Dart and a 74 Challenger are about 300lbs off, 500lbs off if you factor in my trim package...
