Question body weight?

Anyone know the body weight of a 75? No engine / trans / suspension / tires. Has glass; no seats. Wondering how many guys it would take to manhandle one onto a flatbed.

The deal is I need to haul one & am wondering if I should try to flatbed it on the pickup truck or rent a trailer.

thanks,
brian

Hi Brian:

It should be around 2000 lbs. Get 3 people and you're set.

Hi Brian.

It took myself and my two brothers (all 20 something)to move a completely stripped Targa shell. It wasn't easy. If you can only round up two friends, I'd make sure they have strong backs

Thanks. I think I'm better off with a trailer. In another thread the length is mentioned at around 16ft, if my math is correct. Hanging 8 feet off the back of the truck is a bit excessive. Its on a junky 2 wheel trailer right now, looks like I'll put the whole thing on a car trailer & tow that way.
