Like i said, i think it's a bit optimistic. But on the other hand there's more to it than just EFI stuff....little things like the fact that i have aluminum bumpers on my car, also little things like smaller quarter glass that weighs less....after you factor up a bunch of little things they may very well equal a few hundred pounds, but i don't think it weighs less than 2800.
well my 86 which is much like the 85 with a fiberglass hood and doors and hatch aswell as lexan glass in the hatch wieghs 2994lbs. Yes I have a 351w in it and 8 point roll bar. I have none of the efi supporting stuff since it is carb'd. Computer gone so is all parts of the wiring harness that had anything to do with the efi setup. I think at basically 3000lbs with all the light wieght stuff I have even 2800lbs would be a stretch for the 85 stang.
It wont even way less then 3000lbs.!
OK, but is the car radio controlled or are you in it and how much do you wiegh?
You are so right.....why did i even bother? It's only a 5 speed coupe with no spare tire or jack, no trunk sound deadening anything, aluminum bumpers on each end, no options under the hood, manual everything on the interior, factory cutout hood that weighs less than a figerglass cowl (i've compared the two)...not even a stereo....this thing is a TANK, i bet it weighs 4k lbs

I've never weighed it...you just seem a bit underknowledged on this one. I've never read that any coupe before '87+ weighed over 3k lbs. Reading of course is different than the real world but i bet you anything my car doesn't weigh 3k.

Sounds like a fun comfy car to cruise in...

The earlier cars were lightest because they had less sound deadening and safety bs. Also you might take notice that the bumpers on my car came from a '79....also i wasn't arguing anything about stock weight.
Modular2v i can't tell if you're serious of sarcastic...lol.
Just for kicks i'm gonna see if there's a place local to have it weighed. That is if i can drive it there with the lifters crapped out on me.
