Found some older pics I saved from Ron Silva's Silvaliant build a few years back.

He was super weight conscious and had some cool ideas. Too bad he does not come on the forum anymore, probably could have added a lot here.

I like the way he did his seats. Fiberglass buckets with factory looking upholstery. Must have gotten pretty familiar with that hole saw.

Steering shaft.


Check this out.


I don't remember what the car ended up weighing in total but it was pretty light. I tried to emulate some of the things he did on my own car but his execution is way better than my hack work.
