Weigh it.

Sorry, had to say it... :twisted: :)

If it helps, Standard Catalog sez this car shipped @ 2650lbs. (2 door hdtp) and 2740lbs (conv.) This is assuming a slant six engine.

I recently was doing a G-Tech run with a member and his '66 Dart, with two guys in the car, the spare, the jack, and some tools it was about 3200+ lbs.... (probably better to ditch the 230 lbs. DusterIdiot, and the spare and jack, and tools for about 2900 lbs.......boy those DusterIdiot's really Rob the power to weight ratio....)

I recently weighed a bone stock '63 Dart 2dr post w/225/904. It was 2790 lbs with 1/4 tank of gas and no one in it. I imagine your 833 4spd adds about 30-50 lbs to that, and the '64 might be a few pounds heavier due to some extra bracing.

A buddy of mine said that United Rentals have scales and he has used them around LA. Metal shops will also do this, as will truckstops, for a small fee.

Me and my friends just go to the garbage dump, they weigh you before you enter, and charge you according to your load.
