Default Weighed My Turd Today

I took my car to one of the local feed stores in town and paid my $5 bucks to get it weighed. It came in @ 3120 with me in it and nearly a full tank of gas. Full interiored street car and me @ 300lbs . Thought that was pretty good weight for a street car in street trim. Come on now fella's, i been a big guy all my life so bring on dem fat jokes, but it must be original or I may be tempted to leave a rebuttle in return.

I heard the earlier model foxes weighed less than the later models. But When I built the car, I had weight in mind for sue, specially being Mr. McFat *** like I am. I am happy with the weight, I know I have alot more I can take out if I choose to remove the A/C and heater core crap plus the extra interior parts that are unused.

In part because of ALL the extra wiring for the fuel injection!
