Interesting facts about the car. Never knew too much about them. But what makes them so heavy? I can see there is a lot of potential otherwise. ---

> [@bgblockelcamino](#): > > Interesting facts about the car. Never knew too much about them. But what makes them so heavy? I can see there is a lot of potential otherwise. 1.the 2 seats are leather so there is a little weight 2.the all wheel steering (hicas)weighs about 50 pds but can be removed 3.the doors on that thing weigh a ton 4.the ttops weigh about 25pds total there was a slick top version in 90 only 5.there is a buch of things u can remove on the car to make it lighter.they have lightweight batteries.u can remove the ac.carbon canister.egr system.change the power steering to normal instead of hicas.change out the seats,u can get these cars to around 3200pds.there is more things u can take off and switch around im just not thinking right now ---

I can see there is a lot of potential otherwise. not much if any heavier than a Fbody or Mustang. The rear suspension on them blows for drag racing. They suck to work on too.
