Curb Weight on an '82 Trans Am?

I tried to find this in the tech page of this site, and it does mention that the 82 Trans Am was 500 pounds lighter than the 1981 T/A, and within 70 pounds of the 1967 Firebird.
...But it DOES NOT say what the curb weight is.

Does anyone know? Thanks.

Just a guess here, but the build sheet for my 83 Trans Am lists the shipping weight as 3,349lbs. Thats loaded with all options. I'd say somewhere between 3,300 and 3,400 average.

My curb weight, four speed, no air, WS7, no power...3078.

And that's the lightest of any T/A, any year.
