Bring it back here is what the car looks like so far. Getting rid of the steering column junk, and removing the pass. side seat mounts saved another 12.7 lbs. I still dont know what the car weighs but I would be willing to bet its gonna be the lightest 370 around with out using carbon fiber parts.

Wow, that's stripped!

travisjb 02-10-2010 08:01 PM

wonder if we should get rid of the e-brake???

Fathead 02-10-2010 09:00 PM

No, get rid of the head lights and make an aluminum single exhaust.

travisjb 02-10-2010 09:43 PM

nice work, junior! great progress...

footwork will come much easier now! is there enough room there to get at the clutch w/o accidentally clipping the dead pedal? just need to double check that

travisjb 02-12-2010 12:01 AM

junior, forgot to mention, the adjustable column mount looks like a solid piece! can't wait to try that out and post impressions

hey, so who can make a rear diffuser like this one? extends all the way under the rear wheels and creates some real downforce? need this!
