Mine tips in at just over 4500#, but it has a few differences: dual 20 gallon tanks, one full, one partway there, also had the th400 and a 12bolt, but did have a 327 conversion, was an a/c truck with hydraboost brake option, had added a full length 1/4" rubber mat in the bed and hinged tonneau cover.
