Are you sure it weighs even that much? I have had mine out several times and it seems that its not even the heavy.

I wouldn't think it weighs that much either. I've never weighed mine but I would think it would be closer to half that.

The coupe seats definitely aren't 90. This is probably the 5th time I have taken mine out and they may only weight 20-30 pounds each piece.

Keep it simple. Don't ruin the car by going overboard.
I would leave the interior alone. It's too nice to pull it out.
Start with the basics, parts of the car that are easy to put back just in case.
Fiberglass Hood
" Trunk
" Bumpers
" Front Valance
I bought quite a bit of my fiberglass from these guys and was very pleased:

Well the racing starts soon. I'm thinking about entering it in an autocross event on the 21st. Should be buying my helmet sometime next week.
