Weight of 66 coupe
 

Can someone please provide me with the weight of a 66 coupe V8. I have a couple of books, but they don't list the weight.
Thanks in advance

In a 66 coupe

I'm gonna throw 2800 into the ring. I have seen and heard a lot of different numbers through the years, and I guess I will just have to have mine weighed to settle issue.

I know my 66 GT fastback weighs quite a bit less than my old 67 coupe. I removed the engine/trans/rearend and used it in this car, and it just feels quicker. I have heard that the coupes weigh the least.

------------------
66 GT Fastback 5.0, 5-speed, cable clutch, JBA's, 3.40 gears, EFI coming soon?

The Standard catalog of American Cars says:

Shipping weight--2488 lbs.

The number that comes to mind is 2560, dry weight.

After I get my '65 running, I'll weight it and post the results.

'91 LX
Procharger, 3 row intercooler, extrude honed Cobra intake, Mac full Length Headers, 30# inj., 73mm C&L, 75mm tb, E303 cam, 289 rods, ported E7 heads, MSD, T-Rex w/255 lph Walbro, 5 lug conversion, Cobra R wheels, 3.27 gears and Moser Axles.

I did weigh my '66 Coupe. With 1/2 tank of gas and without me in it, it weighed 3020 lbs. Included was spare tire, jack, lug wrench etc. This was for C-4, no A.C., no P.S. Extra was 2 1/2 " exhaust, FlowMasters, home made cold air box and much larger wheels and tires. Al. intake and water pump save a little. I think those published low wts. are dry wt. for 6 bangers with 3 speeds and no accessories.
