Default weight question

hey there im unsure about how much foxes weigh. Specificially a 92 LX hatchback 5.0 5 speed. I figure its around 3,300lbs. But how much would that car weigh if say it had a tubular k-member, tubular control arms, aluminum heads, radiator, electric fan, catback system. Just a lil curious.

i think youre a little under that weight number. if you do it right you could get that car down to about 2800lbs very easy then after that its alittle more difficult

since money then plays a huge role into it
