Roadster weight

[C4 Cross Fire]

Bryan--what's this I hear about your roadster being heavy? Just how heavy is it?

[Karen Wells]

the B&B car with a small block in It will come it at about 2300 lbs so this might be a little more then some of the other mfg's but not much, a lot of this extra weight is due to all of the steel reinforcing that goes into the body, hood, doors and trunk, plus we have steel 12 gauge floors welded full length on the frame for saftey that adds a little as well.

Karen, great to see you answering questions on the forum!! You, Bryan and Slow Dog should stop in more often.

There is steel reinforcing in the doors, and there is a picture on the web of a B&B that was t-boned by a B&B with the owners daughter in the passenger sheet that shows some of this value.

Here is a link to the pictures and a letter from the owner involved.
