lightest A body

62 Plymouth V100 2dr sedan shipping weight 2480lbs.
62 Dodge Lancer 2dr sedan is 2495 the second lightest a body.

This is per my book 'Standard catalogue of Chrysler'

I would agree. I think 62 V100 2dr sedan with optional 225 aluminum block would be close if not exact.

These early cars are sooo basic. Things you take for granted like back up lights and padded dash are optional.

A 76 Dart Lite is light for a 1976 Dart. But nothing close to these early cars.
