Thanks for the info DemonSVT! Your attention to detail is impressive! I was always curious what your car weighed in at.

I have done some fairly serious weight reduction to my 99 Cougar.

I however have a balance between cosmetics and performance. Trying to maintain a 'show look' while having my car as light as possible.

I have scaled my car to 2680lbs with 1/4 tank of fuel. I still believe with more extensive weight reduction I can weigh my Cougar in at 25xxlbs. Provided I remove the carpet and sound deading materials (in addition to interior panels which are already removed)

Of course I would need to go with smaller wheels and remove the wings west lip kit. (15lb 19" centerlines, and a gutted out cougar make for pretty outside...raw inside lol) I am always looking for great weight reduction ideas. Any tricks you guys may have please let me in on the info!
