That's light for all the baggage that you are carrying. Good baggage mind you. There's a guy on another Mopar site that goes by the name of MoparJohn that has an almost all steel car just like yours down to 3000 Lbs or so. His approach to a weight loss program was much more different than mine, but more on the strength of being mathematically scientific.

I built his engine years ago. He also has a couple of wing cars. I’ll be heavier when done, but I’m going to see what I can do to keep it as light as possible. It was 4100lbs race weight before so if I can get it to 3800 I’ll consider that a win.

EFI wiring nearly done. Just need a couple relays to finish.

You can never get that pesky windshield too clean! Lol I’m using the other tank as an expansion/overflow to meet NHRA rules. My previous one was an old calf nursing bottle from the farm store so I thought an “upgrade” was in order

Is it running yet? I have been waiting very patiently. You should have "Graveyard cars" do it. It only takes them an hour to get their cars done.

Very close. I have some relays and other electrical items ordered that should be here soon to finish the electrical. All the EFI wiring is done. Doing all the 12v systems now.

I just emptied several of those this afternoon! I’ll post some videos of the finished car when I fire it up.
