Are you talking about the 'Gross Vehicle Weight' on the tag? That includes the car, passengers, and cargo.

O ok thanx man, yea i think it is because 2820 is to much, thx for the help i just got out of the 300zx mania and now i started with the 240z

i just bought a 1973 240z too the thing that pisses me off is the guy i bought it from said no frame damage yea right the frame is bent to you know what. but fortunatly i have pulled and straightened most of it out. still have alot to go. but i had the same question about the weight.

I found doors to be 8 pounds each heavier 72 -73.....and of course front bumper mounts are close to 25 pounds.
