Here's another pic...I started plug welding the pass floor in this afternoon being that the sheet metal is so thin and very light i used an air punch and stamped holes in the the sheetmetal about every inch or so and plug welded to the floor braces, because the sheet metal is so thin and i can't...

Here's a pic of the floor laying in before welded

I will keep everyone posted. but, Im guessing the car to be in the 27-2800 range as far as the weight... i will get it scaled after i lay the floor and bolt the 9inch back under it. but once the glass is changed to the lexan im sure that would make a huge diffrence alone. I threw the 7.5 rear...

Well i appoligize im not able to give an actual number as far as the weight diffrence but comparing how heavy the stock floors and stock braces felt when i pulled them out im positive the new braces and 22ga floor would be lighter than stock..the old floor pans were 16-18 ga and the old braces...
