I took my car to the Transfer station today and hit the scales. The front weighs 2360, the rear weighed 1,720 and the entire car weighed 4,060 with me in it ( 210 lbs ) and a 1/4 tank of gas. It is a 70 Chevelle with a 502, richmond 6 speed and vintage air, the battery is under the hood, and interior is stock. I think these scales are real accurate, but if you do the math it doesnt add up, I think because the scales are about 60 ft long and I didnt take much time when I stoped because I had a line of people behind me. Does this sound pretty close to anyone out there who has weighed their car?

My bigblock 72 Malibu weighed slightly over 3900lbs with 280lbs of me in it.

1968 chevelle malibu interior complete, steel ralleys, full body car, all the glass there,stock cowl hood steel, 3500 lbs dead even with a 220 lbs driver. i would never had believed it when i went with him to the scale.

under the hood sbc 350, nothing on the firewall, no inner fenders, use to be a 4 speed car....has the pedel and stuff still hanging, but now has a th350 , full weight bumpers and all.

My 69 small block car with no AC and a 240 lb driver weighed in at 3920.

Hi ddeennis, That is one light chevelle, most '68s are 3550 lbs. without the driver, with an iron headed big block.

stan - try tokio scales DOT SCALE/ TRUCKERS at ritzville these can be used even when the station is closed as the scale is always on and visable, did my 1966 drag chevelle a roller and it was 2200, without me in it , its a stripped car. I am also out by the wash state patrol I-90 office were the waste to energy plant is and they do a courtsey weigh in also , thought you'd like to know mark . spokane

My close to stock 70 SS with functional cowl and heavy 8-track tips the scales at 4,020 without me if I remember correctly. Right near 4,000 for sure.

weighed my '68 a couple of weeks ago. Full interior, no A/C, Turbo 350, 454 with iron heads, aluminum radiator, weld wheels, 255/60's in front and 325/50 DR in back, no spare. 3530.lbs without me in it. I was pleasantly suprised.

My 71 big block weighs in at 3600 lb and with a 180 lb driver (me :D ), just shy of 3800lb.

Thanks Mark, I may try the State Patrol scales, its not a big deal, I will probably run the car one weekend at the drags, but its not a race car. I was just curious if my car compared in weight with most other big block cars. With it being a stick, this tranny is heavier than most, and the Lakewood shield adds weight, along with the air. So without me in the car I didnt think 3850 was to bad, being its all steel. By the way there was no charge at the transfer station in the valley, just felt a little rushed with a line of trucks full of garbage behind me...
