coo nice set up. It looks like mine but i kept my two seats and my carpet in the front. Many guys thought Stan the previous owner of my car was crazy because he took a brand new saleen and did the same to it.

Ya with the Cobra we decided, pretty recently that we were going to go beyond the carpet and paneling, and start to do it all. Then with the custom fabricated seat mount from Altered Speed, we can't have carpet in it. But thats a good thing. Who has carpet in a race car anyway? ![[Confused]](confused.gif) ![[Razz]](tongue.gif)

Well driver seat is about 40 lbs. itself, rear seats are about 80-100, once you remove the child safety latch mount. That thing is a heavy steel rod under the rear seat. The rear seat frame, rear belts and cushions. Carpet was about 15-20, passanger seat was about 25-30, center console is about 3-5 gives you a rough idea. Please you drop about 3 lbs when gutting the trunk out. Plus, we needed to basically clear it out so we could have a REAL race seat installed in the car.

That might help lol Most of the weight is in the rear seats and your stock seats are heavy. The stock front suspension is also very heavy.
