I found an old road and track article for a 77 l82 4 speed and it listed 3540 as the curb weight. I don't think anything changed from 75 to 77 so I'm going to use that number to guesstimate the weight. The only track I know of is in beech bend in bowling green. I'll have to ask next time I'm up there and see if they have any scales.

Weight depends on equip. & options so there isn't a "75" weight that fits all. The best way is to weigh it.

I agree Ganey I'm just trying to come up with a guesstimate for my website. I can wait for hard numbers till next time I take it to a track.
