Check the chassis plate.  The plate from my '72 lists
a Gross Vehicle Weight (which is what I think you're
asking for) of 2151 lbs (959 front, 1238 rear).

The current weight of the car is a tad different, as 
it has transmogrified into a Westfield Eleven with
a curb weight of about 1100 lbs.

Is there anyone who can tell me the total weight (numbers in kg.) for my 65
Sprite MK3 - HAN8L50316?

The total weigth includes the car, driver, passenger and luggage.
The Norwegian registration dep. put my car on a weight, and it said 690 kg
(dry) is this correct?

John Nelson (Psycodad) told me that the dry weight was 676 kg., but the reg.
department would not accept this.

Hopefully, i need this numbers by friday 31st.

I will not get my reg. plates until I have these weights...


Thanks.

Lars  :-)
