general weight info!

I corrected the weight in the other post, it weighs closer to 75 lbs. without the hinges and about half of the door panel was missing but includes the arm rest. I had a hard drive crash and lost the original pic but I had this on my server. Bathroom scale is in 20 pound intervals.

 

1972 4 Door 200 I6 with a trunk full of highway emerency tools tire, water etc weighs 2860 lb on a certified scale

 

I wonder what my 77 would weigh with the carbon fiber hood on it now? I know it is a few pounds lighter.

 

Heres the weights from a book I have...Standard catalog of American Cars 1946-1975 by John Gunnell

cant find the other catolog for 76 to 2006 at the moment but you got a good idea what the last two years are going to look like

 

My 70 with 351w that has aluminum intake and heads, Powerglide and 9" with ladder bars, and fiberglass hood weighs in at 3125lbs. The tubbing and all changes were in sheetmetal not aluminum, single seat, roll cage, 5gal cell and big truck battery, chute, wheelie bars, all original glass and carpeting throughout the whole interior.................it's not light by any means and with me it is at 3375lbs. Verified by the track scales last year.
