Thumbs up So How Fat Are You?

Why is it that so few AC Cobra replica turn key or kit builders ever mention there GVW? I know that with a glass body & heaver duty frames, the replicas produced since the originals are on average 200 to 600 lbs. heaver. I remember that csx 3116 with 427 cid iron block/heads was about 2,350 lbs. Csx 2058 with 260 cid iron block/heads was not quite 2,100lbs. My ERA 427S/C w/427 iron is 2,639 lbs. I know that FFR's tend to be in the low 2,200 lbs. range with a SB. So how fat is a glass/alum. CSX 4000+, a KMC, SPF, Unique, etc. So big block or small block; iron or alum. How fat are you?? Come on, get on those scales!
