66 Valiant 2 door non-post weight??

[64 SRT8 Dart]

Hi,
just wondering if anyone might know on average how much the 66 Valiants weighed in at. Non-post 2 door car, with full interior and a 273 2bbl/ auto trans.

Thanks!!

Well, my 66 dart 2dr post with the slant, 904 and full interior weighed 2880. Now, with an alum headed 408, 904, 8-3/4, x-pipe exhaust, no interior, no heater and plastic seats weighs 3029. Both weights without me in it. So I'll bet you're around 3000.

In 1965, it showed 2930 for a V8 2 dr Signet hard top.

I had a '64 post 2-door car.

But, I had added a '71 340 engine, an 833 4-speed (cast iron tranny,) aluminum bell housing, and an 8.75" rear with slapper bars).
I weighed it several times at three different places, usually with a half tank of gas, but not me, in it.

I got results from 3,100 to 3,175 pounds. I weighed it several times because I couldn't believe it was that heavy ('64 V-100 2-door sedan.)

Usually around 3,120. That was with the spare tire and wheel.

Not a '66, but probably close...
