I just sold and shipped one. According to my bathroom scale, it was 75 pounds.

I think you got the weight right. I did notice that mine was much heavier now than than the last time I pulled it 25 years ago.

I used FedEx for the shipping, CA to PA. They priced out cheaper than UPS. I'd replaced the Muncie with a Tremec, had that box to work with for packing the Muncie for shipment.

Check with DHL for shipping. I've found them to be much cheaper than anyone else.
