AC 460, Thanks for the question. My chassis with all of the brackets, mounts, ect weighs 315lbs. This is not a guess, I have racing scales. The total weight of the shown car is right at 2200lbs. But, I used a body from a kit that bonds the body to a fiberglass tub and uses the body as part of the structure. I didn't use the tub but still the body was heavier than needed. I have had the bodies remade to my specs and they are 60lbs less. So, the final weight is around 2150lb, wet. Here is a picture of a car that I am building. It uses all C5 parts and weighs 1980lbs complete. I have had it together to weigh but tore it down to paint and detail. I am reassembling it now.
