Curb weights for 1973-1987 GMC trucks?

Is there somewhere on this forum that lists curb weights for individual model years of the 1973-1987 generation of GMC trucks?

If not, is there someplace online where can I find this information?

I ask because we may bring my great-grandfather's 1983 GMC Sierra short bed truck from TN to SC at some point. So, I'm trying to figure out the best way to haul it back.

In that vein, I'm trying to determine if our 1994 Chevrolet K1500 Silverado Z71 is capable of towing it back here.

Our Chevy truck is rated to tow 8,000 lbs, but its current towing system (trailer hitch) is only rated for 5,000 lbs. However, its hitch ball is rated for 6,000 lbs. Go figure... U-Haul's Auto Transport trailer weighs 2,210 lbs. I'm guessing that the 1983 GMC Sierra short bed truck weighs a good bit more than 2,790 lbs?

Thanks for any help that y'all can offer!

Caleb
