It certainly depends of the version of the Challenger you are interested in.

I think Streetmaster wants to know the weight of his 1970 Dodge Challenger Convertible Hemi Clone 4-Speed.

Sorry I misunderstood your original post.

You did not give a lot of details (such as engine type and size) about your car but here is a rough estimate:

Model # JH

Bodystyle 27

Body Type and Seating 2-dr Convertible - 4P

Shipping Weight 3,470 lbs

lear4406 can probably help you more since he knows a lot about the older cars.

Many numbers have been floated as dry weight. But seeing how its a big block and the heaviest HEMI I would go with Jeremiah on this one and say conservativly 3500 lbs. A convertable is usually heavier due to bracing for the body. That would be real close.
