weight of our 3rdgens? and back seats LBS?

i did a search didn't find much but the specs but i want a answer from some people that have weight there cars themselvs. i have a 85 Firebird and was wondering how much my bird weights and what i can do to lighten it? i took out the spare and am thinking about taking out my back seats but i really don't think they will even matter because there so light. there 4thgen rear seats as well but i bet there damn near the same weight.

back seats don't weigh anything important. Fiberglass hoods, manual steering, etc etc will take out more weight.
