I would suggest the PSMCD data is the most real world info available.

Agree.

I scaled our 69 RS Z/28. RS adds some weight but I wouldn't think it would be a ton. I was surprised when it weighed 3472 lbs. That's with the spare in place and 3/4 tank of gas, no driver. Quite a bit heavier than I thought it would be, especially when people I talk to act like they are 3200 lbs cars. It's only 128 lbs lighter than my 70 bird, which is quite a bit bigger physically when you park them side by side.
My 72 SS 454 chevelle, PS and PDB, and factory AC scales 3,908 lbs, without the spare and a full tank of gas. 4,108 lbs. with me in it. I either need to quit eating cheese burgers or find some weight to take out of the car, lol.
