Weight

Aprox. 3200 lbs stock. A 426 Hemi should pull it just fine.

Weight

If you take your car to the local transfer station, you can give the guy a coffee or something you can find out exactly what your car weighs. My guess on an older car like that would be closer to 4200-4500 pounds. A 69 Dart weighs 3500 lbs.

I agree with having it weighed. There is a lot of difference from one model to another and the options it has. But a guess would be 3700-3800 lbs.

The site I found them on says 3,175 for a base car with no fuel. Take it from there.

My 66 426 HEMI is street trim weighed 3824lbs on an NHRA scale. Just my 2cents. The 3200 that is posted is the race weight after a lot off lbs lost.

The site I found the weight I posted was from mymopar.com in the tools and references.
