Default Weight of '70 GTO front clip
No this has nothing to do with my Judge.

Does anybody know the approximate weight of a complete original steel '70 GTO front clip? This would include inner & outer fenders, bumper, bumper brakets, hood, core support, and valence.

Also what about the deck lid and "Judge" wing.

Just looking to see how much weight can be shed.

Thanks, Nate

Sorry,I dont have specific numbers for you,and honestly I dont recall if anyone has come up with the exact number just yet,but I can tell you that my Glasstek 1 pc. FE w/5" cowl hood is probably lighter than the OE endura bumper alone.

If it were'nt so d@mn awkward,I could lift it all off myself as 1 piece,as it is now in order to lift it off myself,I have to take the hood off first,as that way there's something for me to grab onto upfront.

So yeah,big difference.

not sure of that but my 70 I changed the nose and the hood for fibreglass and had a lightweight rad support fabricated and that saved 230 lbs....The inner fenders added up to about 20 lbs also
