Hit the scales! What do they weigh?
I was out cruising and decided to pull in the local grain elevator and weigh my 1 ton C30 panel truck. She weighed in at 4,860 lbs with about 50ish pounds of extras in it.
I didn't think that was too hateful considering how big it is. I'm running a tbi 350/4l80e combo. Also have metal floors compared to the original wood rear flooring. Anyone else weigh their truck?

I have a 65 C10 SWB stepside with a BBC and roll cage. Weighed in with me in it at 4000# almost dead on. Without me, probably 3700#.

Re: Hit the scales! What do they weigh?
Our trucks are really light for their size. I got the original weight numbers from GM Heritage when I was importing my truck and registering it.

Re: Hit the scales! What do they weigh?
Oh the memories!! CAT Scales. I used to have a collection of about 550+ of those "Super Trucks" cards. I think I averaged about 3 cards a week for a few years back in the 90's.

Re: Hit the scales! What do they weigh?
Had to weigh mine for registration too. Little over 5,700 eight years ago. I think she's getting heavier with age too... like me!

Re: Hit the scales! What do they weigh?
I think its funny how much these weights can vary. You 4x4 and c20+ guys weighing in at 2.5 tons or more, yet there are a few of us in the 31-3700 range (a few even less).
My 66 with an Lq4, no inner fenders, aluminum front wheels, full audio custom interior, fuel cell etc should be around 3850 (unverified for a few more weeks at least).

Re: Hit the scales! What do they weigh?
3914 lbs with my weight subtracted and 1/3 tank fuel. I don't know where I got the previous figure from but it is a little low. This one was metric tare at the dump and I used a metric converter.
