I checked my notes and that was 2860 with me in it and I was around 150 at
the time so the car weighed 2710 my memory is my worst ememy.

This was with a freshky topped off full tank of gas, spare, 61 shop manual
plus 63 supplement, and small toolbox in trunk.

Car had added items like Fitch stoneguard, tiltback seat assembly, tall
drivers brackets, rubber floormats front and rear, seatbelts front and rear,
filled washer res and filled glass bottle...

Add a little weight for the powertop motor and extra cylinders for the P
top....

Clarks Ultimate oil pan (god that thing is heavy compared to the stock
pan...)

So my car is a heavy little sucker....

Hi Rick,

Just to be clear, is the 2750 after you subtracted your weight, or  
with you included?
