I have lightened steel doors with plexi windows and they arent much heavier then fiberglass doors. Maybe 5-6 lbs. They dont look pretty though. I just replaced my friends doors with fiberglass ones on his 73 Dart and the weight savings was 84 lbs per door.I bought the window install kit from Alstons chassis works. ^^^^ This says it all ^^^^^ wow that's a bigtime diet. Yes it is and I used the stock latchs and hinges. A- Body doors must be really heavy.Starting out my 64 Belvedere doors weighed 78 lbs each complete, and my car has window frames. I was able to lose nearly 30 by remove the regulators, gutting the inside and going to 1/8" Lexan. Removing the vent assembly would have taken out another 10lbs. Doug 8008565-W33.jpg (45 downloads)
