For anybody interested, I have a basically stock luv except for it has a 307/350 combo in it, and I went and got it weighed yesterday. The only deviations from stock are no back bumper and no spare tire. At the scales it came in at 2700# even with no driver and 1/8 of a tank! That is lighter than my buddy's tubbed lexan windowed Nova used to be, and the luv still has the bench seat and iron intake and everything!-----let's hear it for the LUV!!! LOL

My stock motor 77 with spare and about half tank of fuel tipped the scales at about 2700 minus the driver. I carry a bunch of crap with me though, tire chains, some tools, bed liner made out of a big heavy industrial belt.

There was a thread about this not too long ago, check it out at http://forums.luvtruck.com/viewtopic.php?t=9034

I was kinda surprised myself at how light it was after that truck weighed 2880 on the thread. Dump all your crap out before you race I guess!!!

I find this pretty hard to believe. One of our scales if off. Could be mine...

well ben you gotta remeber you have a ford 9. those are heavy suckers.

Plus a stereo.......plus gas weighs 6lbs per gallon.......it all adds up.............

Does anyone know what the stock motor and transmission weigh? Or what a smallblock weighs with th-350 bolted up to it full of fluid?

my 75 with stock motor & trans with a cali stepside 1/4 of a gas in the tank and no crap in the bed 2280

My 78 stepside with a 283 4spd, heavy bucket seats, a full tank of gas,steal mojack wheels,and stock size tires weighed in on DOT truck scales at 2600 with me in it.Now i guess it well be about 2200#s on the street.
