Is the interior going back in? Interested in seeing where and how you take out the weight. Im looking to lose a couple pounds over the winter too, looking for 100lbs.

the plate didn't look real good bare, was an old piece i had laying around. the back of it looked really chalky, so i thought it was better to rattle can it.

thank you!

yes the plastic panels are going back in. the interior is in such clean shape that it would be ashame to not put it back in. goning to remove the carpet and tear all the jute off of it. and remove any sound deadner under it. here's a list of what the stuff weighs...

In post #2, fifth pic down, lower right...that whole thing is the heater box and will be staying out? I am looking to remove that thing real soon. I alread removed the rear seats, whole AC, and heater lines. I will also be doing the bumper supports soon.

left all the metal attachments, if thats what you mean. did pull all the speakers, eq and speaker wires. didn't really cut anything out/off. just removed a few things to offset the 6point rollbar and some of my fatass...

yes thats the complete heater/ac box. comes out in one big hunk. and is in the city dump by now. leaves alot of room under the dash to mount and wire your gauges and things.

thanx! i'm looking forward to seeing your nose up launches in person myself. you z is just plain badass man!

that was just the first round, i have quite a few more hours in her since then. pretty much done with the interior, just have a few odds and ends left under the hood before i get the built short block back.
