You're not likely to shed 800 pounds from that car no matter what you do. Short of building a tube frame and hanging fiberglass panels you're just not going to get it to 3000 pounds. I'd be downright amazed if you got it to 3500. Interior parts really don't weigh much. Stripping the entire interior down to the metal and removing the sound deadening material from the cabin will barely lose 100 pounds. Then you've got no dash, no seats, no nothing so you have to add stuff back in. Even replacing these things with lightweight equivalents isn't going to help you that much.
If you really want the car, love the style, etc - then get it. It's mass will make it handle better on rought surfaces and AWD will give you more confidence in inclement weather. It will never weigh 3000 pounds, just take that into consideration when you're doing the mototr and add some more power that you're planning.
