Default 75 frame specs?

Looking for the following information from anyone that knows.

What is the overall width and lenght of a 75 coupe frame stripped down bare?

Also what would the estimated weight of this stripped down frame be?

I am trying to figure out the least expensive way to ship a frame about 2 hours away. I have a 14' box truck and I think I could get it in the back. Just want to make sure it will fit and also make sure 2 men can lift it in there without busting a nut. TY in advance

I just went out and measured my 78 frame (which is similar to the 75 frame) and it measures just under 13 feet in length, and 4 ft 9 inches wide.

I move the frame by myself so I bet 2 guys can pick it up. My best guess at the weight is maybe 250-300 lbs.

Hope this helps!

Mine fit in the back of a pick up truck, but hung out the back (over the tailgate) about 4 feet? Easy enough for even a little scrawny guy like myself to load and carry around.
