Official weight of a '64 'vert SB

[Michael J.]

Anybody know the weight listed for a '64 convertible small block? I can't seem to find it anywhere and it is the first thing my MVD asks for when I register and title it. Thanks.

Are you looking for the base/curb rate, shipping rate, or weight with various options installed. I can provide all.

Thanks, the curb weight is probably good enough for MVD purposes. But I would be curious about all of them if you have them handy, thanks!

Michael,

Larry has already hooked you up. But for future reference, I would suggest downloading the free vehicle information kit for your car from the GM Heritage Center. It should have all the specs you asked about, plus a lot more:

P.S. Thanks Duke!

Thanks for the reminder, yes, I bookmarked that several years ago on another computer I don't use anymore. Getting old and forgetting these things......

Thanks for mentioning that valuable information source that I've mentioned several times.

In fact, I downloaded the packages for all year Corvettes from 1953 to whatever the latest is, plus all year Vega packages since I own a Cosworth Vega.

The packages have a lot of technical information that is not available in the service manual.

Every Corvette owner should have the data for at least their year car, and it's a good idea to get the packages for your entire generation so you can look at how things changed over the generation model years.
