take off those big heavy 15 or 16 inch wheels and tires and put spare donuts all around. The wheels are much lighter and the rolling resistance of the tires is far less. Plus, since they are only rated to about 50 ro 60 mph you will drive slower and save more gas.
Get rid of those big heavy Saab taillights and and use some little trailer lights.
Lose the bumper covers
Up front, lose the grille and those heavy headlights. use some of those teensy weensy fog lights the ricer boyz put on their Hondas.
go with one windshield wiper (except for inspections) and only put it on if it rains. Take the rear one off an throw it away!
Take out the windsheild washer tank and tubing, since you've already dumped the fluid.
Dump the driver's seat and put in a 10 pound fiberglass seat like you'd find in a dune buggy.
remove radio (saves weight) radio antenna (reduces drag)
Then report back about how much fuel you are saving!
