You guys have awakened a sleeping giant. Jack-Lo-Lee's Fitness and trim salon is fully operational. It's only by appointment though. Al, you did not receive just PLASTIC! You received Lexan panel. Totally different and lighter in weight. Hope I didn't blow your cover. LOL.
My goal this season? Having my time back.
Later. It would not be a secret for long! Lexan in my thickness Now I can ask how you guys supported rear window with regulators removed??

Supporting the rear quarter windows is a quick fix, but with an artist's eye and hand. I'll give you a clear and easy way to do it. I'll have to pay a visit to the cave sometime within the next week or sooner. Perhaps the Burger King loitering session this Sunday. Save all the stuff you take off because all this early B-body stuff is going up.

For those looking for a way to remove weight, yet keep the car looking stock, here are a few of the things I've done.
This is a stock speedometer, with the back side cut off, and the needles glued into place.

Here is the heater control panel. I trimmed as much fat off as I could, and JB welded the knobs into place.

The finished result. The dash frame itself, lost 3 lbs, with just some trimming, and removing any unused clip, tab, waste that can't be seen. The ash tray is gutted, and just bolted into place, and the glove box door, had the hinge removed, and is held into place with magnets. All my MSD/wiring is tucked up under the dash, and being able to removed the glove box door easily, will come in handy.

Not naming names, but I know of some 'stockers" that have done a lot of the same type of things.
