I was wondering how much weight we would save by gutting our interior and anything else you all can think of. I want to gut my car out and just have one or two racing seats, but if it only saves me 100 pounds, hell no.

have any idea how much weight you saved?


Not enough for it to make much of a difference. One time i cleaned out my car and weighed all the crap i had sitting in it and it totalled 135 pounds. I bet i saved a crap load more by just keeping the car clean and ncluttered.

the seats aren't heavy . probably only as heavy as the spare tyre.


Agreed, the reason i took them out, is because i hate having people in my back seats, i'm 6'4 and someone behind forces me to drive al crammed up. I'm also sick of giving people rides at school. smile.gif and ive decided to go nuts with some fiberglass and build some custom enclosures where the back seats were
