Guess the weight?
 
I am about to take a couple of cabs and frames to the scrap yard. How much do you figure a bare cab and frame would weigh? No glass, doors suspension , just cab and frame.

$2 per 100 lbs woohoo I am gonna be rich lol.

I would guess between 500-700lbs. (cab/frame)

hotrodhomi 03-09-2005 05:20 PM

I guess less than 500 pounds per cab/ frame. so if you have 2 of each I would guess less than 1000 pounds total.

CHEVYE 03-09-2005 08:33 PM

i`m gonna say 625lb. for cab and frame. hey, what do we win if we're closest? :metal:

79C10 03-09-2005 08:47 PM

I'm gonna go with 575 per cab/frame. Do I get extra prize money for guessing right on the dollar?

87 STEPPER 03-09-2005 08:47 PM

I think about 780Lb's

ONE dollar.... i mean....

SanitysBane 03-09-2005 11:48 PM

hmm...i say 980 pounds!

ItsNotABlazer 03-10-2005 02:45 AM

Hmmmm now I need a prize for whomever is the closest.....how about a free cab and frame? Oh wait noone wants those in the for sale section thats why they are going to the scrapyard. :rolleyes: I was figuring around 5-600 for each so hopefully some of you higher guessers will be correct. Maybe I should add some extra parts to it lol.

anyone got any idea of what a cab,fenders and bed would weight.no glass,no doors,no seat or interior.just the bare body.someone is buying the bare frame off my project truck to fix the bent one in his.im looking to know to see if its worth my while to scrap the body or not for the extra cash-provided its a worthy amount.sorry to jack this thread im just curious.

Bowtie4by 03-10-2005 11:03 PM

I took a bare cab and a bed in and it weighed 760. Hope that helps.

SanitysBane 03-10-2005 11:07 PM

hmm....alot of hints, im sticking with my guess of 980 pounds

TRUCKGUY 03-12-2005 10:33 PM
