C2 Overall Weight Question
Has anyone actually weighed (1963-1967) their car and the results? The big diferences would be how much gas was in tank, big or small block and ac or not. I am sure there are some other variations but that gets the big deltas. Looking to see how much as stock or close to big block would weigh with no AC.

Hey Donny, is that pic photoshopped? Appears you're now running with a small block hood...what's up? Going back to how she came down the assembly line?

63 vert, top down, LS3, Newman Chassis, a ton of dynamat and stereo equipment, 3/4 fuel tank, no driver, battery located behind passenger seat. Weight was 3063 with 48f/52r. Between my stereo setup and relocated battery, I added at least 100lbs back there.

Jim,
that shot is not photoshopped.... it's all tire
it was hinted that I should run the correct hood when I got into the low 13's, it's been there for a couple years now
