What is the average wt of a '65 b-body street car(big block, auto trans, no light wt parts)? My car is in pieces right now and I was wondering what it weighs.

Thanks

The hot rod tipped the scales a wee bit over 3800 lbs.

3400 in this picture with 52% on the rear tires. I think it will probably be about 3600 when finished. Hopefully I can keep the weight distribution 50/50.
