Card board is my special liteweight card-pet. Even the word liteweight here has been abbreviated to save weight. LOL

Yeah, I know! it's a little insane at this point, but as they say, 1600 ounces counts for 100 lbs. These harmless and seldom seen interior trim pieces collectively put on an additional 6-1/2 lbs on a early B-body car, so they'll have to go for a special bath as well. No structural issues here, just keeping the headliner up and in place. I'll be happy with half that weight when they come back.

Nothing at all removed yet, that's a stock spare dash that I have. The dash in the car now is a stocker as well except that the radio enclave has been surgically cut out to make waves for my Tach and such pictured below. This virgin dash is 17-1/2 lbs as we speak, after the bath depending how much percentage I want it left in the tub, it will have anywhere between 4-6-8 lbs removed before it becomes too drunk to itself. I am masking and protecting the steering column cross brace underneath so that it may have structural strength in that area obviously.

I have been watching this thread hoping we would hear what that 65 dodge weighs. So any news on what it weighs.
Getting old just means you were smarter than some and luckier than others.

I'll be bringing it to a certified truck scale this September to see where it sits at now, I do have a rough guesstimate on the weight

My weight loss plan: start with a little import sports car. Will post pics when it looks like more than an empty shell on a body dolly
