JSM Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 I've got my wrecked 73 that I want to save the body from firewall to the end. If I cut the front end off at the firewall, remove all the rear suspension, rear end, transmission and left the interior inside what do you think it would weigh? Also there are no doors, hatch or windsheild left on the car. 300?, 500? 750 LBS? I'm going to need the sheet metal for a future project. My wife is gonna kill me for saving this car. My 3 car garage will be 2 Z's, the 3/4 wrecked Z, golf cart and her van. Not to mention 2 motors, 5 rear ends, 2 transmissions, 5 bikes and 2 scooters.

wickiewicked240z Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 i say between 300-500 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rturbo 930 Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 I'd say 500 is a pretty good estimate. I can probably let you know fairly soon since I'll be cutting the front end off my 240z soon, just need to get the rear suspension/gas tank and a bunch of little stuff out. I just hope it doesn't fall apart when I do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 I weighed my bare body shell and it came in at 520 pounds so with the front removed and the interior still in I think it would be close to that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
