My buddy just weighed his 65 Belvy with a 360, 905, and 8-3/4 in it. It weighed just at 3200 with interior. He used his scales he uses on his late odel every week. He has NEVER weighed over/under what is allowed.

Does that sound right??

What DO your cars weigh in Street form

I have never weighed my demon, but Im guessing 3000lbs..

My big block duster is 3580 with me.. My 67 Coronet was 3950 with me.. That seems light to me.. Could be wrong...

Its pretty rough, Not filled with rust, but its a street/strip car with no hood, and him out of it. Cody is probly 200lbs, and with him, and a hood, and a good trunk floor it is probably 3500lbs.

I don't know how you'd get a duster to weight that much and the coronet sounds heavy too. I'm guessing your not 350lbs?

My duster with no fiberglass and me in it is 3070lbs. I'm 200lbs. Small block,iron heads, no lightening.

A cage will add to the total and the big block will as well. I guess I figured the poster had a small block and no cage.

Goldmember, you better check your scales...I have never heard of a car that light without extreme lightening. My 72 dart weighs 3500 with me, aluminum headed small block, full exhaust, and a 75 pound moly roll bar. My buddies 68 dart is lightened a bunch with fiberglass hood, bumpers, and brackets, aluminum interior, one race bucket seat, lexan, aluminum headed 383, and it weighs 3020 with driver. I am sure he could get it under 2900 with more fiberglass, and a moly cage in place of the mild steel one.

I know a belvedere is probably a little lighter than a sport fury, but my big block four speed 65 weighed 4200 with me in it.

My 63 with the 440 goes about 3530 without me and about 3700 with me. Its a full interior stock body with rollbar and frame connectors. My sons Dart with a 400 in it goes about 3550 with him in the car and he is about 180 which makes his Dart just about 3370 without him. Ron

I'd check the scales,but they are NHRA scales and 2 small block dusters on the same scales were within 10lbs. Both small blocks,both all steel and the only difference is the amount of fuel in the tank.Yes it sounds better to up your weight to make you think your making some real HP,but I'll stick to reality.

The only place I have ever weighed a car is on the NHRA scales at Bandimere. Still haven't seen a 3000 unlightened car that isn't a 4 banger.

Having said that, just because I haven't seen it doesn't mean it doesn't exist...It wouldn't be the first time I was incorrect! Maybe cars weigh more at this elevation?

Mine has been on the Memphis Motorsports park and Gainesville raceway scales.Your welcome to borrow mine if you like. Come pick it up and leave a deposit.

I have had a number of A bodys with both BB and SB in them, 3050 with the BB and roll bar with two poly race seats, light weight rims and tires, no heater, radio or back seat was pretty common on several Dusters and one 1969 Dart GTS 1967 to 1969 Barracuda fastbacks where a little heivier EDIT: BTW, my current 1971 Duster with a fibreglas front bumper and race hood weighs right at 3200 LBs with out me in it, it has the heater, radio, stock 1973 front bucket seats, extra insulation under the carpet and above the head liner .083 chome moly six point roll bar, sub frame connectors, RJ ladder bars with aluminum coil overs, stock gas tank full and two fairly big batterys in the trunk, light weight race rims and tires, 8 3/4 with a 35 spline spool and axles, 400 BB with Eddy heads and a Best Machine aluminum radiators, Hooker A body fenderwell headers with a three inch full length exhaust sytem with Magna flow muffs mounted at the rear bumper and no X or H pipe

3650 w/me in it

71 Duster.......no heat, no A/C, no back seat, no cage, no fiberglass

Factory bench seat, iron head 340, aluminum intake, headers, full exhaust, 727, 8 3/4", steel wheels

Weighed 2920 lbs empty (not sure on fuel level)

Roughly 3090 lbs. with me in it.

My '65 Belvedere 6 cly 3 speed stick weighed 3209 all stock. I've weighed a lot of dusters, never seen one all stock/steel at 2800 lbs.

On MIR's digital scales my Challenger weighed 3755#s w/ me (210#s) and a 3/4 full tank of gas.

That's a full interior (except for the back seat) w/ rollbar, frame connectors, aluminum heads / intake / w-p housing, manual steering (saves almost 40#s over a power-steering setup), a complete 3" exhaust to the rear bumper, T/A-style fiberglass hood, and some misc. things removed (e.g. bumper reinforcement brackets).

Yep, it's heavy... which is why I nicknamed it the MoPig years ago.
