Howard sometimes I swear you are looking for an arguement. I said DeLorenzo period. I intimated nothing but am simply identifying the car and trying to make it easy to differentiat the two green cars.
I have no doubt that no one on this board has near your racing knowledge or experience but you can be a bit gregarious. Good thing we love ya.

no, what you said was "Delorenzos green green" and thats not what it is....I know exactly where there is a pic of that car the way it ran way back when. and I will find it JUST FOR YOU MY FRIEND!!...you`ve seen it on another site, in a race car thread...post #55, and I would bet thats Bill Morrisons son Brian AKA "BJM" playing in the passenger compartment...........redvetracr

One more time. Did anyone know the body weight?

 

[73-84 IMSA W]

Sorry don't know the weight. There is a car on ebay now "said" to be running a Gregg Picket widebody in Kevlar at 62 or 64 #, hard to believe. Redvette would know about the OwensCorning bodies.
The Greenwood bodies are lightweight fiberglass shells, front and rear clips, doors, etc. most from American Custom Industries.
This car comes in at 2564# with BB.

It was 68 pounds minus the hood and rear bumper

The Owens-Corning cars started out with factory bodies to the best of my knowledge. While weight was a factor I don`t think anyone was as fanatical as they were in IMSA. Another question would be the weight of the tub (floor/firewall)...thats where all the weight is. My body is 2/3 thickness made out of fiberglass and it`s pretty lightweight, front end with radiator air box #77, old L-88 hood #24 (new hood a little lighter), rear clip w/mounting brace #57 and the decklid weights #7...stock stuff is thicker, has lots of bracing and weights a ton......
