i have a 1976 crew cab 2wd with a 454 auto dually. Does anyone know what it would weigh empty

I don't know, but my 2WD 454 C20 Reg. Cab weighs 5660 with me in it when I went over the scales at the landfill. GVRW is supposed to be 8600, so I guess I have about 3000 lb. payload capacity, which seems to be about right to me.

i have had it on there for around 3.5-4 weeks no calls/text at all. its not that bad of a truck needs a bedside and dually fender. hoods a little rusty to. but really a solid truck. i have it on there now as a part out. im going to let that go for about 2 weeks and if nothing sells them im going to scrap it

None of my business, but what is the interior like? Instruments/gauge cluster, glove box door, A/C heater control, dash pad, seat, door panels - all worth some dollars on CL/ebay. One forum member here is looking for complete A/C components.
Rear axle, drive shaft, radiator core support, bumpers, etc., all add up.
Around here $450-$500 is being offered for full size vehicles as scrap. This tells me there must be more value in parts.
