State your model, options, amouint of gas and if you were in the car or not.

T-tops, a/c, all power accesories

I weighed it at a self weigh truck scale today:

but this sorta falls under history....

Re: Have you weighed your car?
I dont think this is "lounge" material. It can be very useful but not in the History section... there are better spots for this question and it has been covered before. There is a thread where people are getting below 3000 lbs on a street car. Goodluck

Fiberglass hood

Hi Glenn, sure could have used a few more familiar faces there at HPT. It's not the same as Forbes that's for sure. First time I've been to Heartland Park. Smaller lots than we are used to. I'm not sure our 3rd Gen's are the car to have anymore if you checked the results. I was on 3 yr old Hoosiers (big mistake) but Paul and Lynn had all the right stuff and said it was hard work getting in the trophies. Hope to see you there next year.
