Your car, your choices. In 1983 I began reworking our Pantera L, focussing on dependability and light weight instead of rotate-the-earth power. A stock Pantera on the road with 1/2 tank of fuel weighs 3100-3250 lbs. Ours looks stock from 10 ft away and is street licensed, but weighs 2690 lbs ready to drive. My wife & I used to both compete with the Pantera in all sorts of venues and long distance drives. So its been sort of a hobby to remove unnecessary wt from this car. There's no cast iron left today except the engine block and I have an aluminum substitute almost ready to go.
