MADMAC Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 I was wondering if anybody had rolled their car on a scale, and if so what is the actual weight? There is a recycling center near my house and want to take it and see but my cars torn apart, and I just took the block out to get it machined (My New Project!). I got some advice from some of the other members on where to get some good quality fiberglass peices but I kinda would like to get a base weight that way I know how much I'm shedding.

680HPStroker Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 Two years ago my 72 weighed exactly 4,000lbs with me in it at 190lbs and a half tank of gas. Now with alloy wheels vise steel and a glass hood vise stock the same car should weigh about 3,800lbs +-50lbs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dbreese Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 3850 lbs with me. All steel full interior w/ a/c. I did have the Weld and Hoosier QTPs on it and have an aluminum intake and headers when I rolled it across the scales at the track.
