Weight is correct on it. Went to local CAT certified truck scale that is close by. Car is all steel still. I think a lot of the weight comes from the tubs. MAN that guy I think used like 16 gauge on the tubs on it. Plus whole back of car has a new section on it for the suspension and goes from rear bumper forward to the door pillar area. Plus it has a cross brace hump in the middle of the tunnel behind the seats out of the same channel material. I also have dual tanks in the trunk. Street gas and race gas with two pumps. so I can switch between them depending how hard I want to run. Only one tank had fuel in it when I weighed it.. Beside that also have American Racing original cast wheels on it with the rears being modified to except the 18.5 wide tires I am running. So the weight is climbing quick. 440 block with iron heads and torqueflight tranny and a Dana 60. Plus disk brakes all around. That is why I think I am so heavy. First pic is before I painted floor and partial cage and put blower on it. Just remembered one more thing too. Because of being in Cali. I am running 4 mufflers on it to try and quiet it down and these are standard style mufflers than 3 1/2 inch o.d X 36 inch long glasspak style. Basically exhaust tips of mufflers end about a foot and a half before rear end. I loved it before and so did everyone who hears it. BUT Cali if you get too loud they make life miserable because of the import idiots. Up in mountains i doubt any problems as other hot rodders have told me but did not want to take a chance with some new guy officer wanting to make an image for himself.
