73 blue certification label question
OK, for any of you, who still have your blue label on the door, and can take a picture, to show clearly the numbers, which will match my 73, I would appreciate it.
Now here are the facts:
73 BB 454, TH-400 turbo tranny
3.08 rear, A/C, T-Top coupe
am/fm stereo
tilt telle steering
Hopefully that is enough info to get a match.
I am replacing the sticker and I don't have the weight info. I am hoping to get it exact. If anyone has the same car and options. Thanks.

Hi Sarge,
There was a thread about determining the weight for the blue label a while back.... maybe 6 months or a year, even.
Have you tried a search? Maybe you'll get lucky and find it!

Alan

I'm sure that this was already discussed in the other thread, but I found it amazing that almost all of the additional weight of the big block is over the front wheels. Only 23 pounds to the rear or around 10%. Maybe obvious to others but I never thought it would have been so pronounced.
