This is a modded power window mechanism. C body mechanism with a 68 B body arm. I took out 1 lbs and being a convertible I wanted power. And I took out 1.5 lbs from the back. Yes this added weight 2 lbs to each door and 1.5 lbs to each back window. I still think I can remove between 300 to 400 lbs off the car.

Mirror, mirror on the wall, who's the best of them all? Wait a few days and then wet sand for compound/polish and then go swimming in the Black Lagoon.

"i dream of jeani" [sp] is it. not sure if you guys dressing in shear, see thru pants and shirts with a veil thrown in is saving weight in the right areas. but upon reflection, that might be the ultimate weight loss, as when the competition sees that, they will either go blind, or start laffing so hard your win will be inevitable ! Or a nice yougin in that garb as backer upper

I know it isn't stock looking weight loss but at the point my car got fenderwell headers and the motor plated stroked big block the secrets were let out.
I have begun the Wilwood disc brake conversion, I have removed the old 9" drums and associated parts and as soon as it isn't double digit negative temps in Indiana (since I have no garage for my Demon) I will use the die grinder to remove the material from the spindles to clearance the bolt head and soon have lightweight disc brakes installed on the Demon for a hopeful spring return to the streets.

Even the newbies with all that pork on board are getting in on the action. Simple delete buttons are pressed and there goes some pounds. Wish I had a Demon to play with so that I could really exorcise the pounds outta that Mother. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kKIouJsvaRI

The bad thing I see in the video is that most is removed from the center/rear which MAY affect traction...........

Grinding of the spindles for the Wilwood kit is complete as is the mounting of the aluminum radiator and electric fan wiring is mostly completed.
Side bar question on the aluminum radiator, anyone painted theirs black to stealth it out? I’m considering it.
Also found out my steel front wheels entirely hide the Wilwood kit and the poverty caps fit too.
