Just totting up things i can remove easily that dont make much difference to me.

Remove door bins & bench overhang, Lighten doors, Remove the rear pillar seatbelt things.

Any other bits and pieces anyone else can think of that make a worthwhile difference? excluding fibreglass stuff and stripping off sound deadening ( Going to do this anyway but replace it with fabricy type underlay stuff )
Front end and inner wings are going, Is there much loss in drilling holes in the bootlid strengthening or any other areas? Going to start prepping my shell soon so I need a to do list!

Cheers!

Have a look at Starmag and 1380 riches build threads.

I drilled some holes in my horn bracket the other day!
