T70 spyder

One of the guys that showed an interest in getting me to build them a car like mine is very keen on a T70, and as it will be an out and out race car he's has heard they are rather heavy, and is a bit concerned, so my question is what is the weight of a competed car with an LS dry so I can let him no.

Original T70 Spyder with Ford ( Iron Block/Alloy heads ) 1499lbs. assume that would be mag wheels etc, give you a target to aim at. Depend what you fit it out with more than anything in print though.
 
Hi Jac, dam heavier than even I thought, probably explains why Chris struggles a bit with his car. anyway ill let him know and he can contact Fran and make up his own mind.

cheers John
 
Ron Earp's Spyder came in at 2154lb ( No driver/25us gal fuel ). He felt there would be an easy 200+lb to go missing, steel wheels,roll cage plus he had damn near two of everything- coils, msd, etc ( No faith in USA products ) :)... you might have to think lightweight from day one.
