the reason that they were "so light", if you want to call 3400lbs light, was because they didnt have all the strict crash test and safety isues that we have today.

where did those tables come from? im surprised that they gained so much weight with the RTs...i wouldnt think that bigger brakes, slightly better suspension (and a bigger rear diff) and a slightly bigger motor would weigh 300lbs!

here is one that i found on my computer...its the first page from the spec sheet of a 70 model.
