Title weight is usually the posted factory shipping weight. Shipping weight is based on each model without any options.

Here's what the factory posted in 1970;
WM23 Super Bee - 3425
WM23 Coronet RT - 3573




The 3006lb shipping weight for my 70 Challenger turned out to be dead-accurate, but my particular car has NO options, and that was without ANY gas, and likely lower on other fluids too.

The OP's car sounds heavy by the post, and his stated weight isn't shocking. They gained a lot in 70. A factory stripped out A12 could be a LOT lighter than that. A stripper 68 B-body even less possibly.
