What do you think my car weighs?

I have taken off my air conditioning, air pump, rats nest, all possible hoses/tubes/lines/wires under the hood. Ive got a sterling carb(lighter than stock. dont know how much but...). took out all the insulation crap/mats in the back hatch area.

ehh most of the stuff is in my sig. So what do yall think it would weigh, without me in it ofcourse. Im just trying to get an idea.

Just go to your local border check station and ask if they can weigh your car. Subtract for your own weight, and, voila!

Either that or most dumps will weigh your car when you go in and when you go out to see how much weight you dumped and charge you based on that. So just try your local city dump
